All right. Now I'm confused. When I think "pimento", I think of a reddish
pepper sort of thing that's sweet that I mix with mayo and cheddar cheese to
make pimento cheese. Surely this isn't what you're talking about! The pimento
I know is definitely a new world thing, and I've never seen it any way but in a
small glass jar.
So please, 'splain!
