Strange food pairings.

First I ever heard of it was in a Archie comic late 60's.
I never tried it, sharp or mild cheddar?

I've done sharp, but both would be good. My wife's pie is insane.

My wife's apple pie is REALLY good as well except for one thing. I wish she could do differently. She has to use butter in the crust instead of lard. It is good but oh boy I'd love if she could use lard

Peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches were a staple when we were kids. Nobody seems to like the idea, but most that try it love it.

Miriam was a purist when it came to pastry. After many years, I finally got her to use half butter and half lard in pie crusts.

The issue for her is a pork allergy. Not the taste. When we first got together she would eat pork (occasional chops and bacon) but every time she would become sick. She didn't put 2 + 2 until one day mentioning it to the doc. They ran an allergy test and found there is a compound in pork and oddly enough the same compound in salmonoid fish that she's quite allergic to. Helluva curse

Then there's the Elvis sandwich.

Elvis's Favorite Sandwich is the King of All Peanut Butter Sandwiches

Elvis Presley's favorite peanut butter sandwich is loaded with peanut butter, banana, optional bacon and honey, and griddled until golden brown and gooey inside.

I figured as much.

Of all things to be allergic to, a pork allergy would suck. I'd starve to death.
