Does anyone know how you should pronounce the word "scone"? Should it rhyme with "gone" or "stone"? I know it's silly but it may put an age old bicker between my husband and myself to rest! thanks

personally i think it depends where you come from. In the north east we rhyme it with gone but family i have down south rhyme it with stone, so i think it depends where you come from.

There is no "correct" answer - both are right.
