thing in particular. Yeah, well, you know, there there is

(02:13):
a you know, a big traditional thing with the seven fishes,
you know, the whole thing. No Catholic yeah, I didn't
land on that. Hope scout would have to eat seven
different fishes.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
You have to eat seven different types of.

Speaker 5 (02:27):
What do you mean you have to what? You don't
like fish? Most people do like fish. The rest of
the world eats seafood all the time.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
But why are you eating like normally my husband's eat seafood.
He will have salmon, and he doesn't have seven types
of fish on.

Speaker 5 (02:41):

so don't worry about it.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Yeah, I'm sure my grandparents said this, but it just
weirds me out that that exists.

Speaker 5 (02:53):
Sorry, all right, well it didn't land on that. It
did land on an appetizer. And you have a holiday party,
I almost can guarantee you this will be at the
holiday party, whatever holiday party you go to.

at a holiday party or whatever Christmas gathering, you've probably
seen this. This would be the last thing you would
ever try.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
Is this the thing encrusted in nuts?

looks like a diseased kidney or something. Kidding, sup, doesn't it? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:03):
This is something they removed from the body.

Speaker 5 (05:05):
Yeah, like, yeah, I can't. I grew up with this disease.
This is always at holiday parties at my family's house
and things like that. A pimento cheese. Yeah, you could
buy them pre made and things like that, but people
make them for sure. So it's cheese. You know what
pimentos are?

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Wait, well, what kind of Okay.

Speaker 5 (05:25):
I don't want to get into that. And then you
can be encrusted in different kinds of nuts.

That's a pimento.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
I've never yeah inside the you know it's all when.

Speaker 5 (05:47):
You went to chick Flay. You never got that pimento
cheese sandwich that they had. No, Okay, I don't know
why you're so offended by being angry about it. Anyway,
So it's a it is a huge holiday appetizer thing,
the povento cheese ball. Most holiday parties will have this.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
I think there's cheeses in like different cheeses in the es.
Maybe you like cream cheese. There might be cream cheese
in there. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
Why is this such a mystery to everybody? Why do
people make them differently? So it depends it's not like
a standard.

Speaker 5 (06:24):
No, I think there's different recipes for it. You do
have a variety of crackers there, which is a delight
at the crack.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
The crackers look great, salteenes.

Speaker 5 (06:32):
I don't know about what this club? You got ritz,
I believe, or something walnuts.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
It could be walnuts could be.

Speaker 5 (06:40):
From because wow, who got good luck with that? I
would would you would love this? Somebody? Who else?

Speaker 7 (06:51):
Somebody would have to open it. My wife would have
to tell me about this, and I would trust her.
I don't trust anybody.

Speaker 5 (06:56):
Oh my god. Wow.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
So if your wife took a bike and he knows
me so well, she'd be like, you'd like this or
you wouldn't like this?

Speaker 5 (07:04):
You would like this? You think?

Speaker 7 (07:05):
So you're a cheese many n cheese man, a.

Speaker 5 (07:12):
Butter ball. You'd be a butter ball, butter crusted and nuts.
You love it? I wouldn't love it? All right, sky,
I'm gonna have Emily spread it on the cracker for you.
We'll let you pick the cracker. How about that?

Speaker 4 (07:27):
That's fair.

Speaker 7 (07:27):
I think that to get that saltine or that ritz cracker,
it's not a salt it's it's a butter cracker.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
You should like it.

Speaker 5 (07:34):
Where are you going more or less? Well?

Speaker 2 (07:37):
I want what is it's melted?

No it's cold. I think those are usually cold.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
I don't know. See I like it.

Speaker 7 (07:44):

like a lava cake.

a cracker because you cheesuses.

Speaker 5 (08:34):

Speaker 5 (09:16):
So imagine what You've arrived at the holiday party, the
gathering all your friends and family here, you know, there's
all kinds of wonderful dips and and treats out and
then the pimento cheese ball.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
You've got a martini in your hair.

Speaker 5 (09:30):
Oh look at this. Look at this. You're not wearing
a cat sweater. You know, you're actually dressed.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Up scary too. By the way, this is my favorite sweater.

Speaker 5 (09:40):
Wow. All right, and then you make your way over
to the pimento cheese ball.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
Avoid the crowds, which, by the way, the pimento cheese
ball bigger than your head.

Speaker 5 (09:52):
It's actually get actually all right, and then you go,
you know what, it's the holiday. I should really enjoy
something delicious.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Is that what I'm saying? That's what.

Speaker 5 (10:07):
Happy holidays? And then you take a bike. That's that's
the mindset you're in right now.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
And I wish I had a martini right now. Yeah,
that would be amazing.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
You can probably range that martini.

Speaker 5 (10:20):
Martinis going in your pocket somewhere, you know, Martini. All right,
here we go, Sky, your first pimento cheeseball.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
Please, don't weird.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
It's good. Sky.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Shy your mouth. Okay, I'm doing that.

Speaker 5 (10:37):
Down the hatch. You're eating the whole cracker right at
least half half mark mark mark? Oh yeah, what is
big Mama?

Speaker 3 (10:48):
Think?

Speaker 5 (10:49):
What is it? Why is she so confused?

Speaker 6 (10:51):
Like?

Speaker 4 (10:52):
What is.

Speaker 5 (10:54):
What's problem?

Speaker 2 (10:56):
Like it?

Speaker 5 (10:57):
I know you don't like nuts, she doesn't hate it? Yeah,
there might want to enjoy that. Emily's digging it, okay
it No, I don't think so. I'm not sure what's
going on.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
An allergic reaction.

Speaker 5 (11:14):
I don't understand what's her wrong with her face?

Speaker 2 (11:16):
I don't know. This is just how it looks. Here's
the thing. Didn't totally hate it.

Speaker 6 (11:25):
Surprisingly there you go, seems like the majority of whatever
is in there is cream cheese. Like I was really scared.
It was like goat cheese or some weird like or something.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
I don't fancy people.

Speaker 5 (11:41):
People cheeses, so but everything.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Else inside there's off putting. Every time I hit a nut,
I was like, this is offensive. So if it was
just okay, shut up, if it was just a ball
of cream cheese, we'd have a hit on her.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
Why would you eat that?

Speaker 6 (11:59):
This?

Speaker 2 (11:59):
I think I'll make a pass on in the future,
but not gag worthy. Did it make me cry?

Speaker 5 (12:04):
The next holiday party you attend, don't you're not going
straight for the cheese ball?

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Oh no, I don't think so.

Speaker 5 (12:09):
All right, well, sky, because it's the holidays, because it
is Christmas time. Your gift is this is the last
wheel of food of the year. Yes, you don't have
to do one next day. Happy holiday gift, cheese ball
