Oh dear. Someone at the Club is trying to get fancy again.

Nachos made with smoked gouda and chedder pimento cheese, melted and
served over (tortilla) chips with scallions and sour cream.

Sorry, it just doesn't sound right to me. I like smoked gouda, on a
cheese plate with other assorted cheeses and crackers for snacking. Not
something I'd think about using for nachos. Pimento cheese? Nope.

I guess it's better than saying they use Cheez Whiz or Velveeta.

I'd think that the pimento cheese would work o.k. if it was made with
real cheese and not Velveeta. But the smoked Gouda is a definite turn
off.

Sounds like the club hadda serve 'em or toss 'em ....and since you
gotta pay, anyway.

The cheddar pimento reminds me of something that comes in a small
glass jar. Ring a bell?

<https://www.amazon.com/Kraft-Cheese-Spread-Pimento-5-Ounce/dp/B005DDC4UI>

Mix with Kraft Old Cheddar Cheese Spread. Lotta recipes fer
cheddar/pimento, online, most include cream cheese.

It's the price of these 5oz jars that kills me. Almost $4 per jar,
where I live. OTOH, our sprmkt still sells the Kraft Pineapple Cheese
Spread. I didn't even know Kraft still made that flavor. 8|

Sounds like they have teenagers in charge of menu development... or
maybe someone is smoking funny cigarettes while they "create".

According to the staff this is a big seller. Maybe the older farts are
smoking something funny, too.

Must not be the Kraft Cheese spreads. I jes bought 3, all on sale fer
$3 ea. They're terrible!!

The Olde English is really that exact same cheese Kraft now puts in
those little cracker/cheese packs with the little red stick. IOW,
flavorless!

The Roku Blue is not quite as stiff a cheese, but any flavor relation
to real blue cheese is strictly coincidental.

Finally, the Pimento. It's the thinnest/creamiest of the lot, but it
still is almost flavorless.

Unlike Kraft Cheese Spreads of the past, these have almost zero food
particles included (pimento, etc). Hell, they barely have any flavor!

In short, stay away. At any price!

..It's the nachos that are the big seller, not this combo they have
come up with. I agree, there was some Musgovian cheese.

I'd say they're clueless - but you know your neighbors better than I
do.

You can count on it! BTW, I currently live in Colorado ....'nuff sed.

Definitely don't buy those damn Kraft Cheese Spreads. They're actually
now $4.39 per, fer about 5oz o' crap ina glass jar. They're freakin'
'orrible!! Even when on sale fer $3 ea.

I tossed the Roka Blue. Plain cream cheese with some nasty chemical
taste. Ew! BTW, WTF is a "Roka"?

As I sed b4, the Olde English Cheddar is no longer even cheese. Some
kinda yellow semi-soft crud. Basically the exact same tasteless
glop Kraft puts in those little cheese/cracker thingies with the red
stick. I tossed that one, too.

The last is the Pimento Cheese Spread. Didn't see a single pimento,
like I usta in the old days. Basically cream cheese with some pimento
flavored chemical and dye. I saved the jar.

As I warned before, do NOT buy these things. They are NOT as you
remember. Ten dollars shot to Hell! 8|
