| I am in S.Arizona, the only place I ever heard the term was working in a prison. Black inmates used it quite often, this was in the late 80's. Haven't heard it used since. And it was used to describe a young, pretty girl. |

| Grew up in the 70s & 80s in the Northeast and never heard the term before. Must have been regional.

| Cuomo uses the word frequently when describing his staff, and he is not from Cleveland. |

Same here. The only way I knew the word was from the Bobby brown song.

I grew up about 30 miles south of Cleveland and never hear that term. Heck, from the title I thought this was a discussion on pepperoni spiced beef tenderloin. Actually that may be a brilliant concept, ought to think about filing a patent on that idea.
I've stopped counting.
