cumin, chipotle, cilantro

Edited to add: alliteration at its finest!

Huh? Have I been pronouncing some or all of these three words incorrectly all this time?

Cumin: hard aspirated c, like a k sound, right?

Chipotle: ch as in "chore," right?

Cilantro: either soft c or ch as in "chore" is correct, I think.

There's no alliteration here, unless someone can enlighten me about my mispronouncing a word. Help, please!

Anyway, my holy trinities are:

sweet potatoes, pecans, brown sugar

ginger, scallion, soy sauce

cheese, milk, noodles (mac 'n' cheese, lasagna, lukshen kugel)

coke, Burger King double cheeseburger, french fries (at 65 mph)

You shouldn't eat grouse and woodcock, venison, a quail and dove pate, abalone and oysters, caviar, calf sweetbreads, kidneys, liver, and ducks all during the same week with several cases of wine. That's a health tip.

It's visual alliteration. Emily Dickinson used visual rhymes all the time, and she's considered to be a great poet. :smile:
