No one Southern state can lay claim to pimiento cheese, a Cheddar spread with pimientos (or pimentos) and mayonnaise. The dish is famously a tradition at the Kentucky Derby and at the Masters Tournament in Augusta, Georgia.

You may be surprised to learn that the "pâté of the South" did not originate below the Mason-Dixon. In fact, the earliest versions (made with cream cheese and pimientos) can be traced back to New York. Georgian farmers began cultivating pimientos in the 20th-century, and the spread became a Southern staple sometime before World War II.

Amelia ★★★★★

The olive pieces are a nice salty contrast to the creamy cheddar base, and it spread perfectly on crackers for a quick snack. I’ll definitely be grabbing this again for game day.

Owen T. ★★★★★

This pimiento cheese has just the right balance of creamy cheddar and briny olive pieces. I spread it on crackers for a quick snack, and it tastes like something you’d get at the Kentucky Derby. Definitely ordering another tub for game day.

Claire T. ★★★★★

I spread this on crackers for a quick snack and the pimiento cheese is perfectly creamy with just enough olive brininess to cut through the richness.
