[CrankyJay]

Some co-workers mentioned this today and I have to admit I'm intrigued...have I been missing out all this time?

What say you GAF? Apple pie with or without cheese?

Do you melt it or not?

 

[kris.]

ive heard its popular in certain areas of the US but damn does it sound disgusting

 

[SouSouRocket]

I've never done it before (or heard of it) but it sounds kind of amazing... I love sweet and savory and I really love fruit and cheese. I'm not sure about melting it though... I feel like that would ruin it and make it greasy.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

No

just

no

 

[Alucrid]

no thanks just a scoop of vanilla ice cream

 

[akira28]

pretty good, but I only have a tiny bit of cheese on the side. Not melted all over the top. The contrast in the spicy sweetness of apple cinnamon and the sharp salty savory of good cheddar is nice.

 

[DECK'ARD]

I like my cheese, but no to this.

Apple pie and custard thanks.

 

[Kerned]

It's actually very good if you are using good cheese. Don't go putting a Kraft single on there expecting a culinary miracle to happen.

I dunno, I think the top pic is a good compromise...partially soft/melt, mostly intact.

 

[Green Wiggly]

I'll admit I'm curious.

 

[Raistlin]

You've been missing out, yes



(I've never tried melting it though)

 

[DJ_Lae]

I've never done it, even though I love apple pie and I love cheddar even more.

It just sounds like an abomination, like Levar Burton's horrible instructions to wrap a banana in a processed cheese slice and eat it (DO NOT DO THIS).

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

I imagine it'd be good with wenslydale and cranberry and very little else.

 

[UnholySpectacle]

It might be good enough for K but I'm not sure if I would try it.

[Zoe]

Didn't work for this guy.

 

[rezuth]

I hate Apple Pie and putting cheese on it seems like only making it worse.

 

[Cosmic Bus]

With a small amount of sharp white cheddar on the side, sure. All those pictures appear to be using a lousy orange-dyed store-brand CheddarCheez™

 

[entremet]

Da fuq?

 

[plasmawave]

It's actually pretty good.

 

[Not Spaceghost]

I bet it's actually pretty good, if you melt it it would add a layer of creaminess to the top and just a pinch of saltiness to the flavor.

I can definitely see this working, I won't hate on it till I try it.

Spoiler

PS: Swiss cheese in hot cocoa during the winter is magical and if you don't like it you're a total pleb and I hate you forever.

 

[dekline]

I was never a fan of apple pie. This just sounds horrendous.

 

[richardhawk]

I love pie but I'm pretty sure some shitty fly over state made this a thing.

 

[CrankyJay]

It's died to hide the natural color fluctuations that appear in aged cheeses...not all died cheddars are shitty brands.

 

[Halo 2]

Crumble on apple pie > cheese on apple pie

I want to try this though.

 

[GavinGT]

Sure, if you're insane.

 

[akira28]

stop doing what I do, America.

 

[Siegcram]

 

[Slowdive]

I've never heard of this before, doesn't sound too good.

 

[Messerschmidt]

Ed Gein really liked it. He gave his confession in exchange for a single slice of apple pie with cheddar cheese on top.

 

[Ferrio]

It's good.

I mean we do fruit+cheese platters, this isn't much different than that.

 

[Siegcram]

Ed Gein really liked it. He gave his confession in exchange for a single slice of apple pie with cheddar cheese on top.

Talk about a ringing endorsement.

 

[nullref]

A nice sharp cheddar is a great complement for apple in general, and an apple pie is no exception. I'm a fan of this. I'd have a tough time choosing it over a scoop of ice cream, though. (Would cheddar ice cream on apple pie be the ultimate? Maybe.)

 

[ElRenoRaven]

No

just

no

Yup. Only a psychopath would put cheese on a lovely apple pie.

no thanks just a scoop of vanilla ice cream

You know what's up. Apple pie with a scoop of vanilla is just heavenly. More so if the pie is fresh and warm.

 

[DanteSparda504]

I've never heard of it and it sounds awful, but those pictures look incredible.

 

[echoshifting]

I thought it sounded gross too until i tried it. A little sharp cheddar on the side is surprisingly tasty.

 

[J4g3r]

 

[djplaeskool]

It's unexpectedly good.
Sharp cheese + apple is tasty.

 

[VariantX]

It's unexpectedly good.
Sharp cheese + apple is tasty.

yeah. its just one of those flavor combinations that just works.

 

[adg1034]

I've had it where shredded cheddar is mixed straight into the crust. It's incredibly delicious.

 

[dem]

My wife eats cheese on apple slices..

fuckin weird

 

[Meier]

Seems to be a popular thing as of late. I'd never heard of it until recently... all I can assume is that it originates from Wisconsin or something.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Yeah, this is an (as far as I know) southern thing.

Never been big on it, but I don't dislike it.

 

[leakey]

The only acceptable answer is vanilla ice cream. That, or no apple pie.

 

[okno]

Sour cream apple pie is where it's at. GLORIOUS.

I want pie now.

 

[echoshifting]

Go try it and come back to this thread for your servings of crow, gaffers. Also good with a little sharp cheddar.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Sour cream apple pie is where it's at. GLORIOUS.

I want pie now.

Oh wow what the fuck, visit a psychiatrist, one step too far!

 

[Freaky Fred]

Apple pie is fucking disgusting, but I love eating apples with sharp cheddar cheese slices

and my favorite sandwich is a bacon turkey club with sharp cheddar and granny smith slices

 

[ReAxion]

It's fine. Not my preference.

 

[Ferrio]

Never heard of this... I'm going to have to make it.

 

[Shaanyboi]

I only first heard about this acouple years ago and the idea is repulsive to me.
