I saw this on Mastodon posted by @infobeautiful@vis.social and figured that it was appropriate for this community and absolutely not controversial in any way shape or form.
Fascinating.
Option 3: Upsetting all of the English speaking world by pronouncing it to rhyme with pony.
I have to also admit, as an American i imagine a scone as a little triangular cake, so I laughed looking at those Popeye’s biscuits floating in the corner of the image.
Popeye’s biscuits with raisins in them.
That’s a mf biscuit

biscuits are hard and snappable, what’s pictured is an english muffin.
i agree that this isn’t a scone though, scones are… doughier? like, an english muffin has the elasticity of bread, while scones are way denser and not elastic.
That is absolutely not an English muffin. I’m simply stating that we call that a biscuit in America.
