I definitely say jif. Hard g is like nails on a chalkboard for me. On the Nerdist podcast, Chris Hardwick had a great back-and-forth with Wil Wheaton about the pronunciation; it made me love Wil more and Chris a little less.
Jif. I didn't know people pronounced it differently until last year, I think, when one of these polls was asked on ML. It blew my mind that people pronounced it with a hard G.
