Do Americans really?

salty + sweet = good
how hard is this to understand? it's the same principle behind pineapple on pizza, bacon as a desert, and salted caramel.

As an American, I have never heard of this. Also, when I bake apple pies, they are pineapple-apple pies.

>>15733754
no one eats this here. It's a meme from the 1940s that you guys are still gawking at. There's plenty to mock about us, but be current at least.

>>15733762
>no one eats this here
Almost nobody. I still remember when I was a little kid at a daycare center as a treat they gave us apple crisp with cheese in it. If you blindfolded me I couldn't tell you it had cheese in it.
I'll say this, fresh apples and cheese go great together. Try eating some apple slices with pieces of nice cheddar.

>>15733767
Based but also not

Apple pie is boring and one note.

>>15733750
A little bit of good cheddar cooked till it's crispy is ok, but not that velveeta abomination you posted. It's almost exclusively old people that eat it that way, like people who are 90.

>>15733750
Cheese with apple pie or fruit cake is an old Yorkshire tradition but, like everything they touch, yanks inevitably get it wrong.

You need a nice Wensleydale, not fucking melted plastic 'cheddar'.

We even have a rhyme for it.
>Apple pie without some cheese, is like a kiss without a squeeze.

>>15733755
>bacon as a desert
Do you actually do this?

>>15733957
>he's never had candied bacon
I bet you've never had sex too

>>15733750
I've heard of this but never in my life seen it of known anybody who does it
Probably some old shit wisconsinites in the 50s used to do

>>15733750
You've never heard of baked brie with apples? Do Europeans really?

>>15733970
Be honest with me, are you actually fat right as you reply to my post?

>>15734012
Not the guy you replying to but lol uh.... * Rapes you and cums inside *

>>15734019
Funny....

>>15733991
yurostanis on this site know nothing beyond what they read on reddit and twitter

>>15733750
you're right only complete psychos like it

>>15734031
That doesnt even make sense.

>>15733750
nah, i'm american and i can't either. still kind of difficult to wrap my head around cheese and fruit pairings.
i didn't even think of the idea until ratatouille, then i saw my dad eating kraft and bananas and almost dry heaved. idk anymore man.

>>15734012
I eat bacon for desert and I’m a fit American

Nice bait lmao

in wisconsin it is illegal for a restaurant to serve apple pie without a slice of cheese

>>15733750
Some Asian guy tried this on Masterchef and was kicked out immediately

>>15734289
That’s so hoss

cheese on pie is great.

I've only ever seen or heard of this in movies

>woah, cheese and fruit, cheese and pastry ?!?!?!!? who ever heard of such a thing

Never had a Danish huh....never had a cheesecake huh.....

>>15733842
ok this actually makes sense. I thought people were really out here slapping kraft singles on apple pie

>>15733842
That pie looks god awful, worse than a blown out asshole, once again America has to perfect a shit food item, much like spaghetti, pizza, and chinese food, I never knew apple pie originally sucked too

>>15733755
>pineapple on pizza, bacon as a desert

>>15733754
Hahahahaha "do americans really?" It's so good, I'm LITERALLY laughing my ass off!

WOW!

I literally only saw it in that terrible men in black movie with they go back in time

>>15733754
Yes

>>15733750
American here, nobody does this. I have no idea where you're getting this idea from.

Seems like a good idea though.

>>15735352
>nobody does this
Shut-ins detected. go to any diner.

>>15735358
during a pandemic? Do foreigns really?

>>15735352
I picked it up from my family in upstate New York and now its the only way I will have apple pie. Sane with my wife.

>>15735385
what pandemic? We had a small one that lasted 6 weeks. Are you still trying to control it?

>>15733750
English tradition, just like ruling the world, nbd

>>15735389
Really? Well, I'm from Utica, and I've never heard anyone put cheese on their pie.

>>15734342
Based.

>>15735454
Well they'd have to sling it on their pretty hard for you to hear it.

For years, I worked at a restaurant that offered cheese on apple pie. Never had a single person order it.

>>15733750
>Can an American please explain the whole 'melted cheese on apple pie' thing
A pie without cheese is like a kiss without the squeeze

>>15733750
never heard of it but I do like cheese and apples together

>>15733750
>Can an American please explain the whole 'melted cheese on apple pie' thing? I just can't wrap my head around it.
The only person I ever saw do this was my maternal grandmother. no idea why.

>>15735389
Can confirm it as an upstate NY thing, and a boomer thing, though I've never tried it myself.
Also worth noting that I've only ever heard of it being done with real cheddar, not American slices.

>>15733750
its savory and sweet like peanut butter and jelly. just try it and you might like it

>>15733750
It isn't a thing and is never even talked about. Doesn't exist. Maybe in wisconsin or something

>>15733778
>Apple pie is boring and one note.
That's why you add the cheese.

>>15733762
I eat it and I'm not ashamed. It tastes great.

>>15733842
and there you have it.

>>15733991
looks good

>>15736170
it's definitely not from wisconsin.

>>15736170
>i haven't seen it in Anime so it doesn't exist
Get out more weeb.

>>15733767
>If you blindfolded me I couldn't tell you it had cheese in it.
Then what's the fucking point?

>>15733991
Brie comes from France and nobody eats that shit in France.

>>15734289
Urban legend that's been disproven time and time again. There was a law from 1935 to 37 that required butter and cheese to be served with meals at restaurants.

>>15733754
Koreans do this with their ramyun

>>15737056
Texture, I presume. I'm sure it added a creaminess to it that was lost on a 4 year old.

flyovers like to pretend they have culture, despite walmart being the only thing holding their desolate shit community together. This is a flyover's attempt at culture. I totally understand why other countries hate us.

>>15733750

I probably couldn't wrap my head around eating whatever disgusting slop people do in your faggot country either but don't bitch about it because I barely realize you exist outside of when you post dumb shit like this USA USA

>>15733750
no one does this

>>15737672
wtf are you talking about? most flyovers live in large midwestern cities, not bumfuck Arkansas, and literally no one puts cheese on apple pie there, thats 100% a northeast thing

>>15737732
you aren't fooling anyone, joe jack. Now get back to the corn factory us coasties are hungry.

>>15733842

Imagine some dumb cunt from YORKSHIRE thinking himself superior to yanks by posting a fucking Tesco’s apple pie with refined sugar dumped onto it next to a wedge of what is essentially Hipster’s Cheddar

>>15733750
"Cheese"

>>15733842
>It's an "Americans inherit something from Europe which then falls out of fashion there, and then Europeans balk at Americans for doing something they themselves did 100+ years ago" episode
I swear to fucking Christ this happens way more often than it has any right to. Europeans need to accept that for all of America's retardation, it's at its core a reflection of Europe itself, and that most American traditions probably have their origins in a largely forgotten or obscure European one.
t. Australian that's seen this happen multiple times, you people are actually obsessed

>>15733750
It tastes great. Hardly any Americans do it, but most of them are unaware of how good it is.

cheese works well with apples
cant say ive ever seen or had this though

>>15733750
this looks like a total struggle meal some boomer might have eaten for shits and giggles when he was a kid

>>15733750
>>15733754
Ohio here, I have NEVER seen anyone put cheese on any form of fruit pie.

>>15738293

My grandfather told stories of growing up on nothing but warm homemade apple pies.

its a thing, travis bickle ordered apple pie with a slice of cheese when h e met betty at the diner in taxi driver

>>15738293
It doesn't really make sense as a struggle food given that historically sugar prices were relatively high compared to other food ingredients, and you need a lot of sugar to make a decent apple pie. Since the Brits do it too I think it's just a taste combination that some people like, crazy I know.

>>15738435
>you need a lot of sugar to make a decent apple pie
Maybe they were just sliced apples baked in crust? All you need then is the apples, flour, lard and water.

>>15738057
The British accent is another good example of your sentiment. I'll never take the social criticisms of the English seriously while they speak like retards simply because their ancestors wanted to be different than the poors.

Some other European nations have some legit ground to stand on for tradition or "the right way to do something" (some, not as much as they think). UK isn't one of them at all.

Dude in america we put cinnamon and nutmeg in our chili. Then we eat it on spaghetti noodles with chredded cheddar on top. You have completely missed the point of America. Go back to huffing gas or whatever.

it's a dairy product on top of pie
sort of like ice cream or whip cream
it tastes good

>>15733762
Its really fucking good. Like curry and eating boiled eels to english or a dozen black dicks if u were Australian or Scottish.

>>15738435
apple pie was not a luxury in america ever. if anyone ever slapepd a slice of american on something, it was a struggle food.

>>15737732
My grandpa who had never lived outside of Huston did it too.

>>15738606
>spaghetti noodles
Or as it’s known by adults, spaghetti.
