[Opinions] Oh, caramel, I thought it was some famous brand of candy

We call it "karamell". But I don't pronounce "caramel" as "carmel". For one thing, I pronounce caramel with 3 syllables and Carmel with 2. For another thing, I pronounce the A in "car" differently. Maybe I pronounce one of them wrong, I would pronounce the "car" in Carmel more like "car" (but with an audible R-sound).

I learned my lesson well.
You see you can’t please everyone
So you got to please yourself."
