i wonder, if we had a few snail mail addresses, if a package of instant grits would mail well and keep for a mailing to the aussies on the list. -----Original Message----- From: Rayna Lamb To: [log in to unmask] Sent: 5/19/2002 1:09 AM Subject: Re: Grits Roslyn, I asked the same question a few days ago ;-) From what everyone has posted in reply they sound like a mushed up corn product mixed with milk, and then served in an amazingly wide range of ways. Been wracking my brains to think of an antipodean equivalent - but it sounds like porridge to me (and yes, everyone, I know porridge is made of oats, and grits are corn, but it is the closest I can come up with).
