      Now, I've enjoyed pimento cheese sandwiches but I've never had a pimento cheese soup! And, I've lived in the south for the past 25 years!!!

      I'd actually never tried pimento cheese until I moved to the south (We don't really eat it much in the midwest!) and it's so good, I bet this soup is amazing!
