Quote : | "For the last 6-7 years many people have been posting semi-coherent rants to various websites about Captain Kutchie's Key Lime Pies from a cafe that used to exist at 2186 Hendersonville Rd, Arden, North Carolina. The reason this is mysterious is because the place clearly has not been in business since the 90's and may not have ever served key lime pie. Here is a barely coherent blog post about these pies from August 2016: https://medium.com/@itsmrjakefromstatefarm/i-tried-the-captain-kutchies-key-lime-pies-and-those-piegasams-healed-all-my-f8d12126aecf#.f6xv2jypl
Into The Rabbit Hole: We think these posts may be coded communication between multiple people as they make little sense and there are frequent back and forths between different users. Here is a back and forth conversation in the comment section of a key lime pie recipe: http://www.dianasdesserts.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/recipes.recipelisting/filter/dianas/recipeid/2526/recipe.cfm
Deeper Into The Rabbit Hole: Some of these rants are submitted by someone with the username "Roger Ramjet". This a reference to a 1960's cartoon called Roger Ramjet. This may be important because the plot of one episode is for Roger Ramjet to "hide the secrets in the pie". Here is a link to the episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wurffjdfOi0
How Can North Carolinian's Help? Since we determined there actually was a Kutchie's Key West Cafe in North Carolina during the 90's I am here to ask if anyone has any knowledge on this restaurant that is now a vacant building. The Captain Kutchie's Key Lime Pie posts mainly discuss someone named Captain Kutchie Pelaez who may not even be a real person. If anyone has any knowledge of a Kutchie Pelaez or of the restaurant, we would greatly appreciate your help. Here is a link to the r/UnresolvedMysteries post about this topic: https://www.reddit.com/r/UnresolvedMysteries/comments/527bkj/captain_kutchies_famous_pies_that_never_existed/?sort=confidence
We think that the possibility of of a schizophrenic individual or spambot making these post is less likely due to the sheer persistence in discussing the sole topic of Captain Kutchie's Key Lime Pie for 7 years straight. Others have suggested it could be for search engine optimization but that may also be less likely due to the persistence of the posts over so many years.
Edit: Here is a link to the r/asheville thread on this topic. Some good local insight here: https://www.reddit.com/r/asheville/comments/52hywc/mysterious_key_west_cafe/ Edit 2: The post frequently mention the Biltmore House and Estate In NC as well as a Anita Pelaez. Any info on these topics would be greatly appreciated." |

Obviously you have never been to Kutcharitaville. Kutchie and Anita Pelaez make the world's greatest key lime pie at Kutchie's Key West Cafe located near the Biltmore Estate in NC.] 9/17/2016 6:42:41 PM |

He said that they was an autistic or mentally challenged guy that either worked there or lived close by and hung out there that always tried to get us to get the key lime pie. I don't remember any of this but he lived closer and went more often"." |
