I think it's a native new englander local stereotype about yankees eating pie for breakfast; implying that they eat too much.

Apple pie with (cheddar) cheese apparently was a New England staple in the 17th century, but I don’t know if anyone had it for breakfast.

A very old New Englander once to my girlfriend & me that we went together “like pie with cheese.” We had idea what to make of it.

I've had a modern version using brie and I became a fan.

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
