    what the hell is 'grits' and 'cream of wheat'?

    I've been searching all over australian websights and I can't find a place where I can buy grits, cream of wheat, and all these american foods

    can someone please tell me what the hell it is and whether it tastes good, and whats the GI

    ronnie coleman's video has him eating grits!

    Grits, i just happen to have some right here. It white hominy that has been grounded up. It looks grounded rice.

    Hominy is a type of corn, but tast nothing like whole kernal corn.

    The only good way to eat grits is with REAL BUTTER A LITTLE SALT AND SOME SUGA. No other way for me.

    Sugar? On grits? I'm with you on the real butter and a little salt but you lost me on the sugar addition.

    I prefure to have my grits with six or eight eggs over easy. A little pepper and some salt. Thanks a lot now I'm dieing for some grits and eats. Eggs I can have but not the grits.

    It depends on if you have instant grits or slow cooking grits. It not complicated and there will be directions on the package that are easy to follow. It is similar looking to cous cous but smaller granuals. It's off white in color.

    When I was in Mississippi (whew!) I had a buddy that was from Alabama, and he would put ketchup, butter, eggs, sausage, salt, pepper, hot sauce, and anything that wasn't nailed down on the table! I didn't understand the whole thing, but I did eat the grits, not ground down, but hominey grits with some butter and pepper. Pretty good..

    damn bro grits are good, like them w/2 eggs overeasy all mixed together...butter and ground pepper is good in grits also......but if u have never had or even seen grits before then if u ever get a chance, say at a restaurant, then just ask if u can order just 1 grit since you've never tried them before.

    I love grits
    I hate watery grits with a passion. They have to be "fluffy" and stick to your bones.

    Vinny: Uh, do you remember what you had?
    Town Person: Eggs and grits.
    Vinny: Eggs and grits. I like grits too. How do you cook your grits? Do you like them regular, creamy, or al dente?
    Town Person: Just regular, I guess.
    Vinny: Regular.....instant grits?
    Town Person: No self-respectin' Southerner uses instant grits. I take pride in my grits.

    That's just F"n Awesome Key! Everytime I think of grits THAT is exactly what I think of! ....
    vinny - how long did it take you to prepare your grits?
    Town Person - 5 minutes
    vinny - 5 minutes, So in your kitchen your grits cook faster than anywhere else in the grit eating world?
    Town Person - I guess

    AWESOME!
