sucanat. Settle this for me, please. Is it like Shu-Ka-Nat? I know it is short for "Sugar Cane Natural" so that is what I am guessing? :-\

I pronounce it like the original words they were plucked from as you listed.

That is how I thought it was pronounced as well...I just realized that I don't think I have ever said it out loud before.

I've never used it nor do I know what it is, specifically, (except that it's sweetener?) but I say "SOO-kuh-not" like Rabid.
Which syllable gets the emphasis in the "shoo-kay-nat" pronunciation? I am having trouble saying it.

Yeah, same. I can imagine saying "shoo-kuh-not" as well, but it never occurred to me to use the "sh" sound (like for sugar, duh) as opposed to a straight "s." How interesting!
