No, I have never seen a grit. Never smelled one. Never ate one. And if I ever go into the south all I want to eat is part of a pig rosting around on a spit and with an apple in its mouth. Not a grit! eww isn't that like shredded wheat??

What I don't understand is people who like to put salt and pepper on their grits.  I prefer a little sugar and butter myself.

I can't fathom how in the hell i ended up in the south...  there are so many things i dislike about it.. GRITS being very near the top... so this "Southern" guy gives a HUGE "hell no" to this question...

grits are made from corn right? - they are a gritty hot white substance - kindof like in-between oatmeal and rice - but they have very little taste - mostly just texture - that's why most people can add such a wide range of flavors and seasonings to their grits.... a lot of resturants in the south are making them as a side with gourmet foods these days you can get them with jalapenos or you can find shrimp topping them off...
