Do all Americans pronounce biscuit as 'bisc-wit' or is it only the one I heard in a TV advert? Just wondering as I'd never heard it pronounced that
way before...
Maybe a dumb question but...

I've never heard it pronounced that way either, and I'm American.

Are you sure the commercial wasn't for Bisquick?

Thanks guys. I can't remember what the ad was for. It just popped in to my head and I was wondering. Hmm Jenny, maybe it was Bisquick. Who knows!
