The nearest equivalent we have is steel cut oats. I understand grits is a kind of porridge, only corn not oats. Should be banned under every possible convention, including the nuclear arms one.
It gets worse. Grits are lacking in some essential vitamins, so long term ingestion brings on some serious vitamin deficiences - including a form of roseacea that affects the skin - hence the phrase red-neck meaning someone who eats grits that they have a vitamin deficiency that turns the back of their neck red. Can easily be cured by eating tortillas instead of grits. The mexicans learned long ago that you have to process cornmeal with lime to access the essential vitamins. So a redneck is someone who refuses to learn from other people how to eat corn properly.
Not a chance. I refuse ABSOLUTELY to eat grits. And your mob have the nerve to complain about Vegemite.
I always imagine eating sand.
I refuse to eat grits too. I have no idea what they actually are, but they sound dreadful 🤣

I wasn’t impressed with steel cut oats, and having that style of porridge made with corn just makes it worse. Why would anyone do that to themselves?

Another reason that the states south of the Mason Dixon line are fucked up.
It keeps making more and more sense
