"submareine" news and stories

A few months back, I posted about a map that showed regional names for soft drinks: pop, soda, etc. Well, I recently came across a similar map designed to show how people in different parts of the U.S. refer to their long sandwiches. The map is part of a larger project called the Dialect Survey, created by a linguistics professor at Harvard. Other regional food pronunciations include caramel (do you use three syllables or two?), mayonnaise (man-aze or may-uh-naze?), pecan (pee-cans are for truckers), and lots more. I also found the alternate names for milkshakes pretty interesting (cabinet? velvet?).
