Question for people from the UK

I am an ignorant yank who needs help.

How do you pronounce SCONE?

Does it rhyme with stone?
Or does it rhyme with fawn?
Or...?

Thanks for your help. I eat them all the time but feel silly for not knowing how to say the word properly. I usually rhyme it with stone.

The truth is that people pronounce it either to rhyme with gone or to rhyme with phone and it depends on which part of the country you come from. So there's no right or wrong answer here.
