you're probably cooking them wrong if they're like sand. add Montreal Seasoning and cheese....delicious. edit: of course grits are gritty...duh... |

Kitsa | Do you have a Big Boy restaurant near you? Because they're always on the breakfast bar here. | |

Jeanette X | I actually like cream of wheat, so that sounds palatable. | |

LordSappington | Mmm, maybe. Depending on where you are in the South, the stereotypes vary wildly. Here in Texas, while we've got our share of yokels, there are a lot less stereotypically inbred fools with dumb sayings. | |

Our local breakfast bars always serve them, and they must over-steam them because they've lost all grittiness. They're more like cream-of-wheat around here. I've had them a couple of times with maple syrup. They're okay. |

It took me several business trips to SC before I finally developed a taste for grits. You can't help it, they come with EVERYTHING. I now eat them whenever I travel "down south". My wife thinks I'm nuts, but that's nothing new. Quote:

Tadao | I am positive that it is exactly what a southerner would say. | |
Sep 10th, 2009 12:11 AM | ||
Wiffles | I think the best way of eating it is to make it into a mushy porridge and add sugar, cocoa or cinnamon, or some flavors. This comming from a grit lover ^.^ | |

It isn't so much the taste (its quite bland) as it is the texture. I should've known that a food called grits would turn out to be...well...gritty. |

Blah, grits. Has anyone tried this mockery of a food? I bought some grits and I tried eat them and it was like eating sand. I even tried putting in cheese and on another occasion, fruit, and it still tasted like shit. I really wanted to like them, seeing as they're cheap, healthy, and easy to make. |
