When my wife and I got married, the menu the caterer gave us suggested "vegetable crudite" as one of the things we could have at the reception. She explained that it was a raw vegetable platter, and my fiance explained to me that it was pronounced "crew di tay" not "crud dite." Since then, my wife and I have a long running joke of calling the thing "crud dite" and I sometimes forget myself and think it really is pronounced that way.
