Don't diss 'em until you've tried them.
I used to think grits, gross.
But then Damion ordered some and I just about ate them all.
Alot of likingness of them depends on who makes them and how they're made.
I can't help but think that Cath's would be good.

Are grits not ground corn? Made like cream of wheat or oatmeal porridge?

LOL Guess I could have easily answered my own question ....


Grits is a type of corn porridge, which is common in the Southern United States consisting of coarsely ground corn. This is similar to many other thick maize-based porridges from around the world such as polenta. It also has a lesser resemblance to farina, a thinner porridge.
Hominy grits is another term for grits, but explicitly refers to grits made from nixtamalized corn, or hominy.
Yellow speckled grits is also very popular[citation needed] in the southern states, named for its the black specks in its yellow body.
