"Cahr-uh-MEL" or "CAR-mul?" This sweet, sticky treat should be easy enough to pronounce (unless you have a mouthful of it), but there's plenty of regional debate across America. The Western half of the country pronounces caramel with two syllables, completely ignoring that second "a." Meanwhile, Southerners and East Coasters embrace that second vowel and spread this candy out to three syllables.
