Ok ok ok... guess I can't knock 'em 'till I try 'em! I'll give 'em a whirl and then if I don't like 'em - feed 'em to the ladies! Perhaps they're southern belles!!?

Some folks call that "polenta"!

I love grits- little butter, s & p, maybe some cheese if I'm feeling uptown.... and all the leftovers go to the chickens.

Polenta is the SAME thing.......EXCEPT polenta is yellow (unbleached). Tastes the same to me.

Here's the "True Grits" from a "Yankee Newspaper", the New York Times:

Hey, nobody is more southern than my DH! His family came to GA in the 1600's. The boy is made of biscuits and grits and lots of things fried! And no real Southerner says "polenta". That's some foreign name.

Hey, Junkman, kudzu is a weapon. Told someone the way to win a war was the Southern one, with a short term attack and a long term one. Drop hot grits on 'em (man, those things will stick to anything and sear the skin right off ya!) and invade their country with kudzu! It's the gift that keeps on giving!

To the uniniated: "Kudzu" is a vine that apparently was introduced into the South by gub-mint (during the Depression or after Civil War?) to provide feed for farm animals in POOR farm areas.

It NOW controls most ground and seems IMPOSSIBLE to eridicate!

s'possed to be high in Protein, though!
