Reason #437 Why It’s Good to be Back in the South
Pimento cheese.
I love pimento cheese. Actually, I love my grandmother’s pimento cheese. Store-bought pimento cheese will do in a pinch.
When I first moved to
Needless to say, I haven’t been able to find pimento cheese in the grocery store for almost ten years.
Until now.
And there’s a selection. There were at least five different brands in the store yesterday. I was overcome, but I’m trying to pace myself. One brand at a time, at least until I can get to my grandmother’s house and get a good fix.
I love the south.

I don't think I have ever heard of it! I guess I am too much of a Yankee. :) I'll have to look for it here in Louisiana.
My dad was a true Southern boy, and he loved pimiento cheese.
I'm pretty sure Nebraska is north of the Mason-Dixon Line, but we had that, if we're thinking of the same thing. Is it a spreadable cheese product that comes in a small glass jar?
Dave,
It is a spreadable cheese product, but I've only seen it in plastic containers. The one in my refrigerator now is called Pimento Spread. It could be one and the same!
Yankees! Putting pimiento cheese in a glass jar. :p
