It's funny how as soon as I read to Netherlands, my brain back-tracked to correct me on the pronunciation.

If anyone else is ever in the Netherlands and has a chance, due the tour in Gouda, it's delightful and you get to try a bunch of gouda cheese!

I hate that I can’t say the word without saying it right, but that means that everyone else thinks I’m saying it wrong. Haha

Agreed btw, the tour in Gouda is wonderful. Show up for the morning when they have the cheese market; it’s a really fun time.

one of my pet peeves is "Gouda" puns that rely on it being pronounced like "good-er"

It's a shame more people aren't taught gouda pronounce it.

It's Ghowda right? The gh like in argh and the ow in brown.

Yes!

Yes somewhat, but try to keep the 'h' to a minimum and extend the 'g' like you're gargling. :-)

Say it. Say "chowda"
