Stop the Confusion: Spell Bologna as Baloney

The Issue

Let’s change the spelling of Bologna to Baloney. Why you might ask because spelling it as Bologna is simply ridiculous. How do you even pronounce it spelled like that. No 5th grader should lose the spelling bee because some idiot decided that it should be spelled this way. Never mind the fact BALONEY(yes baloney I refuse to spell it like a neanderthal) isn’t even that great of a meat, it’s paired with the most absurd spelling I’ve ever seen. The word baloney has a definition of “foolish or deceptive talk” and I think personally think it should be used for whoever decided in this spelling.
