Using 3D spectroscopy data from the TYPHOON Project (PI: B. Madore), I show convincing observational evidence that the ISM oxygen abundance traced by HII regions presents systematic azimuthal variations in NGC 1365 and NGC 2997. I discuss a possible physical origin and on-going efforts to explore the prevalence and cause of such variations.
