John Kim covers golf for PGA.com Every year, tens of thousands of golf fans, and millions worldwide, look towards Augusta National Golf Club with visions of Amen Corner, the world’s best players and - pimento cheese? It’s true. The culinary offerings of The Masters may not rival your five star listings in terms of presentation, seasoning nor taste for that matter, but the fame of the Masters branded sandwiches, sweet tea, lemonade and even their own potato chips make it one of the hottest menu items in town and the price - $1.50 for drinks, $1.50-2.50 for sandwiches, $1 for chips - is always right. Though pimento cheese and egg salad sandwiches draw the most demand by tradition alone, their barbecue and chicken sandwiches are starting to build quite the following as well. A $10 bill will feed two easily, grab a spot under one of the stately pines near Amen Corner and you’ll have one of the best lunches you could ever hope to have – anywhere in the world.

Them palomino saniches are a tasty treet, my fiend.
I love Southern food (lived in Savannah for a while), but sweet tea is nasty sweet.
Why all the hullabaloo over a nasty ol cheese sandwich? is it truly that good or is that what you were programmed to say by a bunch of food snobs?
"Nasty"??? Joy, darlin', you must live WAY north of the Mason-Dixon line if you haven't been given the chance to appreciate the delectable concoction known, hereabouts, as the "Mentercheeze". Thay ain't no "snobs" in this part of the country, dear. By the time Wall Street took it all away, food just consists of that what fills the gut and keep the kids from crying themselves to sleep. We just know whut tastes real, and good!!! Ain't no "hullabaloo" honey. Fuel to keep you goin'. I wanta raise a hullablo, I'll find me somethin' worth fightin' about. Meanwhile, gimme my mentercheeze.
Joy - aint't nothin' personal here. We all have our particular bias./

Joy is just a pucker butttt.
The other linked article says the pimento sandwich is only $1. this says 1.50 – 2 for the sandwiches.
They are $1.50. The sandwiches range from $1.50 to $2.50 depending on which kind you get.
impish can't read, ha ha ha
Was there Thursday. The Masters is indubitably the nicest, classiest event on the planet.
YAY!!! SNOW IS GONE, TIME FOR GOLF!!!!
The price is WRONG, bitch.
Since you have lost your gameshow job a NEW job opening for you here at the Masters. Down by the lagoon, they need a MasterBaiter for the fishermen and women. Right up your alley!!!!!
Richard - thanks. Can't stop laffing over your comment to this creep.
LM aO! Good one there buddy!
Bob-Yo Bobster!!! - you've got a job keeping up with being civil. Is it really that difficult??? Maybe for the males on your dwarfed side of the tree. "Bitch" is a loving term we save for our canine freinds of the female sort. Sounds like you've never learned to apply the concept correctly. Or could it be that you've never been slapped correctly??? And, BTW, your price doesn't even come close to being relevant or interesting.
