Monday 12 May 2008 : Tor-tee-yahs

I'm all for plain English and uncomplicated communication, but what's the world come to when you need to tell people how to pronounce the world 'tortillas' on a packet of tortillas?

Why, when we have instant access to more information than we could possible know what to do with, do we insist on diluting things down to the lowest common denominator?

It could be worse, I suppose. They could have avoided any pronunciation issues and just called them 'wraps' (pronounced raps) instead.
