Question about apple pie

So when we where having our apple pie, Grandma brought out a pack of cheddar cheese to put on the pie.

Joel, our oldest, and Grandma put some on their pie but no one else did. It just didn't seem right....

Is this a thing.....

Yep, sure is. 🙂

Think of a cheese plate. Cheese is delicious with fruit like grapes or apples.

If you like cheddar and you like apple pie, try it!
@Cigarguys It’s yummy!

@OlderSometimesWiser A Dutch Apple Pie as well? I'm imagining it with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream and that nothing evil could become of this...... only good!

Well maybe after an hour it might not be so good 😬

Yes, it's a thing. In England, there used to be a custom of serving cheese with fruit, so when Americans starting making apple pie, it seemed a natural choice. But it IS an old English custom.

I was told that it was an old Cheshire custom to eat Cheshire cheese with apple pie.

@4meAndyou Still is a custom in the North of England to serve Wensleydale Cheese (mild-flavoured) with very rich fruit-cake.

And of course we have those old buffet staples, the grape or pineapple cube speared onto a cocktail-stick with a cube of cheese.

@4meAndyou I make fruit and cheese trays all the time for snacks but I don't eat them together.

I've never tried it, but heard of it many times.

I haven't touched a slice of apple pie ever since I watched American Pie 🤢

@Thevy29 Yep. My boy-man brain went straight there. And, now I feel shameful 😔

Cheese with raw apple is delicious . . a winning combination of malic and lactic acid. But with hot apple pie? Cream, custard or ice cream would go better.

It’s a thing but not for me.

It's definitely a thing. It really comes down to your personal taste. I prefer mine plain though, but that is just me.
