flesheatingvirusVanilla ice cream OR sharp cheddar. Not both at the same time.
Put a thick slice of cheddar on the slice of pie and put the plate in the oven until the cheese melts.
If you haven't tried it, you should.

flashguyI hate cheese, so NO. I also don't put salt on my watermelon--I did used to salt my cantaloupe, though, but I've not done it for years.

And my father, although I don't recall his ever putting cheese on apple pie.

bald1Love pie! It's all good!

--depending on type (e.g. apple) with a nice slice of sharp cheddar on the side... never on top!

It's definitely a New England thing. Apple pie with cheddar makes a great breakfast. Just ask Daniel Webster.

tsmccullCheese on rare occasions, but more likely to be vanilla ice cream.

parabellumIt's a Southern thing, I think. The first time my grandmother served me apple pie with a slice of cheddar, I didn't realize it was cheese. It looked like cheese, but it was on pie, you see, and therefore had to be some sort of sweet- some weird icing. But, uh, no- dang, grandma- that's cheese.
Yeah, it sounds and looks odd, but if it's done with right, it's tasty. You need a mellow cheddar, something that lends more to texture than flavor. The cheese should be room temperature when placed atop your warm pie, then allowed to reside in a warm oven for roughly two sips of a mint julep. Mind you- your cheese is not melted, but rather in a custard-like state.
Gotta do it right, y'see, and then you shall understand.
