Has to be the imported limburger and sweet Granex onions on real pumpernickel to work. A little speck is also a good idea...,

I've never tried limburger and onions on pumpernickel. To be honest I've never even seen limburger, but I generally like strong cheeses, so I'd be willing to give this a try.

The more significant questions are:

Is a Granex onion an oblate spheroid?

Has MOS95B ever matched two Granex onions in a gladiatorial contest?

And when will Phil offer a model of a Granex onion to go with Log and Plankton?

Incidentally, there used to be a wonderful cheese called Liederkranz, similar to limburger, invented in America by a Swiss immigrant named Emil Frey, the same man who invented Velveeta, would you believe. It was great stuff, but sadly, Liederkranz was withdrawn from the market in the 1980s. The name (wreath of song) comes from the old German singing societies in America (one of which counted my grandparents as members).

If left too long on the shelf, Liederkranz would turn haze gray in color, similar to many U.S. Navy camouflage schemes. Not unlike pimento cheese spread, which has a passing resemblance to the Pacific Measure 33 green schemes -- although some might argue that the resemblance is closer to the color scheme of a French pre-dreadnought.

For linguesa or cocerla, one would have to go to the Condottieri-class light cruisers, such as the Bartolomeo Colleoni, the Emanuele Filiberto Duca d'Aosta, or the Luigi Savoia Duca degli Abruzzi.
