LOL. I too would be grossed out by pineapple and mayo sandwiches.

indeed.
But yes, I have not only heard of pimento cheese, I have consumed it whenever and however possible. It's a Southern staple. It should be noted, however, that like so many things, there is pimento cheese and there is stuff that is called pimento cheese (or
{shudder} pimento spread). If it's not homemade (or made in-house in a restaurant or store), it ain't worthy of the name.
I make a killer (baked) mac and cheese made with pimento cheese.
