Rayna,
Being an old Texas boy, I am 3/4 Texan and 1/4 Southern. I really
don't
care for grits, but I will try to explain it to you. Grits are usually
eaten
with breakfast in the South. They are made from hominy which is a
variation
of corn, You grind the hominy up into a fine grainy form and mix it with
milk. This process yields a grainy oatmeal-like dish. It is very bland,
so
most folks spice it up with butter or sugar or both. In many restaurants
in
the deep South, grits always come with breakfast. Some people liken the
spiritual concept if grace to grits, in that you receive it whether you
ask
for it or not.
