Tom-ah-toe. I've never heard someone say it tom-ARE-to.

[Niteshade007]

Toe-may-toe.

[NYCGoldenIdol]

Ta-may-toe. I think it's a New York way or overall american way of pronouncing it

[Lonsome_Drifter]

I say it, Toe-May-Toe

[LostArk]

To-may-to.

What idiot moron voted for tom-are-to?

I thought maybe the other would have been To-Mah-Toe
