Try it with the apple & cheese microwaved together. I do it with 2% cheeze slices & a quartered apple. The cheeze melts and the apple gets slightly warm & softer & somehow sweeter. Yum.
My mom eats weird stuff, too. She was eating a sandwich that I thought was peanut butter with a slice of apple, which sounds okay, but it was really peanut butter with a slice of radish! :eek: I think maybe she’s missing some taste buds.
When I was a kid, I know we’d occasionally go to diners that would serve apple pie with a just-barely-melted slice of cheese on top. It’s really good, surprisingly.
My dad used to fry slices of bologna or summer sausage, put ketchup in the middle, then roll 'em up and eat them. I always thought that was pretty gross.
Although, back in the day, he used to eat beef tartare too. So I guess by comparison it’s not all that bad.
Apple pie without cheese
Is like a kiss without a squeeze
We always got slices of nice, sharp Cheddar with our homemade apple pie. Bliss! The sharp cheddar balances the sweetness of pie, and apples and cheese just dance so well together.
At family dinner time, my mother had a habit of mixing everything on her plate all into one. The oddest combination that she ate was a mixture of spaghetti and meat sauce with salad. As in mixing the salad with her spaghetti. While not outright gross, there are some definite texture issues as far as I’m concerned. Ew.
Apples with cheese is a perfect New England snack, Though I admit I’ve never had cheese with apple pie.
But a superbly sharp cheese with a slightly tart apple (like a cortland or macintosh) is divine. I went to an orchard yesterday and came abck with some nice cortlands and some Cabot private stock cheddar. I damn near cut my mouth open, the stuff’s so sharp! :eek:
JUNGLE JIM’S! Wow, someone else who knows about that place. I love their burgers, and I often stop there as a treat on Friday evening, on my way to a movie at the Downtown Disney AMC Theater. I’ve never opted for the peanut butter burger, though.
I only go when I’m in Florida (which lately has been pretty often!). ElzaHub and I are planning a trip in February to Disney, so I’m going to take him to JJ’s for a peanut butter burger (he doesn’t believe me when I say it’s awesome). I LOVE that burger. Try it - seriously - they guarantee it;).
