For the whole time I've been reading this thread,  I've been sitting here saying aloud , "PEAcon, pehCON, PEAcan, pehCAN", etc. I have come to the conclusion that I have no idea how I normally say it!

Interestingly, I was just watching an episode from this year's "Great British Baking Show" and was reminded that most Brits say "peek-uns" or even "peek-un nuts." One of the contestants was joking that he was making something fancy, so he was going to use the "posh" pronunciation of "pe-CAHNS" instead.

Interesting because I was watching Hell's Kitchen I think it was, and I swear Gordon Ramsey said PEAcan!!  But this season is filmed in Connecticut, so maybe he was going with the local pronunciation.

Same here in NW Ohio.

That's how I've always said it.  I grew up in Southern Ohio.  I now live in central Indiana and it's said here Pea Cans.
