Pimientos are a type of red chile pepper. The ones you buy in a jar are a sweet variety which is peeled and cut in tiny strips. And yes, with the olives.

Saw them at my store about an hour ago - mine were more over by the canned/jarred mushrooms, marinated artichoke hearts - stuff like that. I will admit that my store does have a somewhat strange layout - school supplies (I needed a notebook for work) are for some reason in an aisle between incontinence supplies and pet food. I have no idea where the rhyme nor reason is there.
I want to warn you that adding pimientos adds no flavor at all to any dish. They do add a zing of bright red color, but they are squishy, flavorless blobs of squelch.

I have never had it, but the homemade version sounds yummy. Grated cheddar, grated jack, cream cheese, some mayo, pimento, fresh dill, black pepper, and dijon mustard.

Pimento cheese is incredible! I always knew about it but never tried until last spring. So glad I did!

I understand it makes awesome grilled cheese sandwiches.
