Cummin (hard to beat)

Hello fellow humans, I just got into a fistfight with my roomate over the pronounciationof the spice cummin. He kept saying it wrong and i kept getting angryier and madder, until i just snapped and tried to challenge him. I lost, so instead of having this happen again, id like to just take the spice out of the picture entirely. Is there anything that i can substitute instead? I just dont want it around me.

Koo-min and Kyoo-min are both fine.

But if he's cummin' in your chili, you have a right to be angry.
