Actually in the original song, the seller does have po-tay-to today!
"There's a fruit store on our street, It's run by a Greek And he keeps good things to eat, But you should hear him speak When you ask him anything, never answers 'No' He just 'yes -ses' you to death And as he take your dough he tells you:
Yes! we have no bananas, we have no bananas today! We've broad beans like bunions cabbahges and honions And all kinds of fruit and say, We have an old fashioned tomahto a nice Jersey potahto, But yes! we have no bananas! We have no bananas today!
HA! Palladian, that's a great song, and it's in my car CD changer right now. I know this is going to sound totally yuppie, but Pottery Barn Kids sell these CDs with the most interesting compilations of classics like this one.

STEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
I didn't think pelmeni were usually made with potatoes. Wouldn't potato pelmeni just be vareniki or pirogies?

OK, actually, I think they sell the Louis Prima version of the song which is not the original.
Hey Palladian, you stole my schtick from the first potato post. Great minds think alike
