We had a pimiento cheese party at my friends' bar a couple of months ago. A food historian made a version from an old cookbook that was made with butter. It was tasty but I prefer the classic version.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I don't think I've ever had pimiento cheese.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I posted this on facebook, but thought I'd post here also.
Anyone interested in 5th editions of The Norton Anthology of World Masterpieces 1 & 2. I can list out what they include if you cannot find it online. Might be useful to covering some required texts for HS AP english or college classes if someone is looking to save $ on books.
Also is anyone interested in a good basic dictionary, thesaurus, and atlas? They are a few decades old, but useful if someone wants a BOOK, not an online source.

Thrive to spite them
Pimento cheese is really easy to make, I'm at Matthew's so I don't have any of my cookbooks with the recipes (I think have several church cookbooks with multiple variations). I think it's either cheddar, pimentos, mayo, cream cheese and seasonings mixed together or just mayo, and I've seen one recipe that use Velveeta, pimentos, and mayo. There are a few variations that use a sweetener like sugar or syrup.
When I get home I'll look through some when I get home.

I don't believe I have ever had pimento cheese.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Traditional pimiento cheese when I was a kid was always made with a jar of chopped pimientos and a block of Actual Velveeta. I'm sure there were other ingredients (added cottage cheese was one variant, as I recall the curdy texture), but those were the two grocery store basics.
Man, white sliced bread (Bunny or Sunbeam or Merita), Velveeta, Armor dried beef, thin slices curled in the little glass with the stars around the top, sliced bologna, mayo, tomatoes, French's mustard, ketchup, and American slices were the foods of my childhood. Oh, the garden vegetables Mom grew and then cooked into utter submission, too.

Oh my god, home made French onion soup with raclette cheese, so damned good. It's just as well I forgot the bread, because I may have swooned from the goodness.

Heh.
Pimiento cheese does not sound like something I would enjoy.

Speaking of good food, some frozen mixed veg, sauteed chicken, and TJs red curry sauce over rice makes for a tasty dinner.
