Still waiting for SPAM to be half price again…
HelloParm
it's Parma…
..but if it were the other one it would be Parmy not Parmi.
Parmy
Forgot the both option.
No no hear me out. One is used to describe a good one and the other is used to describe a bad one ;)

You're absolutely right, but I thought Melbourne did it the other way around?
You don't get a vote mate, judging by your username, you are way too invested in this.
No one from Melbourne says "Parmi".
Spell it out, shorten it, say it…Parmi
Only people that don’t sell beer in correct quantities and think it’s normal to order a pot of beer say Parma…
Yes that's why a sandwich turns into a sanga and a service station is a servo. Great logic you got there.
Thanks! I was very worried it may be flawed logic based on emotion rather than rational thinking for a second there.
Say it aloud, not in your head.
Parma ("Parmuh") is accurate.
I will not be reasoned with. 😂
Spell it out, shorten it, say it…
I think that's the point.
Parmigana - shortens to parmi by spelling, but parma by pronunciation.
Disclosure: I say parmi. [QLD]
Parma… Cause that's what Dr Karl calls them and he is not often wrong.
Well in this instance he is

Yeah whatever you smarta- hmmmm yours checks out as well
Hasn't he also admitted to only eating one in his life at one point on his jjj show?
Not exactly an expert :)
'Parmi' sounds like something you'd say with a floppy wrist!
Pot and parmi
Pint and parmi
A parmi by itselfParma is weird.
No schooey? no middy?
Pint or piss off, (profanity) /s
If parma is weird, parmi is downright dreadful.
whoever thinks cheese goes with chicken is a monster.
schnitzel.
Exactly! And not a fan of tomato with chicken either.
The only valid topping I see is a sauce, like gravy, pepper or mushroom.
Next poll. Schnitzel or schniddy?
Schnitty
Next poll (after that) - Snapper or Schnapper?
Schnapper
Party Pie or Nibble Pie?
potato cake or potato scallop?
Nibble pie? Wth?
Only heathens say Parma.
Yes it's spelt parmigiana ( Italian ) but it's always been pronounced parma in Regional Victoria so I'm going with Australian traditional take on the name and I'm not going to change.
Where in Australia do people say parmi? I've never heard of this in all my years. Always been parma.
Yeah, over 70 people voting for parmi? Who are they?
Everywhere except Victoria.
Us South Australians fight you over it too.
Yeah but they do things differently in SA don't they…
@smartazz104: They sure do, I had the most incredible parma at a place in Mt Gambier. I'll never forget it.
Lived in Victoria and always called it a Parma.
Now I live in Tassie, with a Queenlander and a NS Welshman and I'm slowly understanding that everyone else calls a parmi.
Understandably, everyone is wrong. You are, however, entitled to your opinions no matter how wrong they are.
Incorrect.

Sydney. Parmi.
Meant to reply to ^
Basically everywhere except Victoria it's parmi/parmy
At least Victorians know it's a potato cake, not a potato scallop/fritter.Potato cake? Seriously?
Back to lockdowns with you. Clearly you've not learned your lesson yet!
I moved from Sydney to Melbourne before and found it so weird when I asked for a 'Potato Scallop' at a fish and chip shop and they didn't know what I was talking about!
Queensland: Potato Scallop
Oh, and… Parma, ya Philistine!🤭
At least in Vic you don't try to order delicious battered seafood and get given a crap slice of potato.
Found this comment on reddit that adequately describes this and should put this debate to rest.
“Of course it’s Parma. In Melbourne (with our large Italian immigrant population) we know that the meaning of ‘parmigiana’ is ‘from or of the city of Parma’. The dish is supposed to contain ‘Parma’ ham, as that’s what defines the dish, and that’s the reason we’re correct. It’s not a shortening or abbreviation. Anybody who says ‘parmi’ or ‘parmy’ is obviously wrong, delusional, obtuse and deficient in their knowledge of food culture and language. I am not a pedant, merely correct. So there! (Aka ‘suffer in your jocks’!)”
Ahh yes, melbourne, the self proclaimed most cultured state.
It's OK that you're wrong Melbourne, just keep being you and go back to fighting about paying for plastic bags.
Excellent. Debate over.
you're kidding yourself. no chef / pub cook puts parmesan on your Parma mate.
I propose a name change to Chicken Cheddar.
Appropriating and bastardising the name of the cheese, when it isn’t even that cheese, is no longer appropriate in this day and age. Lol
Ah yes, Reddit comments, the source of all truth.
Except the Australian parmigiana is a variation of the "Italian dish made with fried, sliced eggplant layered with cheese and tomato sauce"
So it appears it was called already called a parmigiana before ham came into the picture.
Anybody who says ‘parmi’ or ‘parmy’ is obviously wrong, delusional, obtuse and deficient in their knowledge of food culture and language.
Or just an average Australian …
Below average.
It's Parma. Parma! Say it right Frenchie!
Chowder!
Not happy with those results
Take it from me
You gonna change your username?
YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE, DAMN VICTORIANS!
Bake him away, toys!
….
Parmo
I prefer this to Parma
Have a parmo and then a smoko.
In Sydney they have a parmi then a smoki
Would rather say this over parmi
Parmy
The city it's named after is Parma, Italy.
Do you also spell it parmagiana?
The cheese it’s named after is called parmigiano-raggiano
While the cheese is from Parma, it’s name is parmigiano which an Italian adjective for Parma
