True Grits

So my girlfriend lives in South Carolina, and as that is part of the south, they apparently eat a lot of grits down there. My girlfriend has been wanting me to try grits for a while, and today while shopping at Walmart, I noticed that they sell grits there!

So I texted Leah about it and she dared me to try them. Not wanting to appear wussy to girlfriend, and needing something to blog about anyway, I put a container of grits in my shopping cart.

A little while ago I decided it was time to try this bizarre food. I didn’t know much about grits. I know they’re made from corn, and I guess they’re sorta corn’s answer to oatmeal.

They look tasty huh? Well I wasn’t really sure how to prepare them, so I figured I’d just make them like I’d make oatmeal.

Grits are weird. They taste sorta like… corny oatmeal. I put honey and milk on mine like I would with my oatmeal. I don’t really know if I was supposed to do that. To be honest though, I kinda felt like I was eating a bowl of gruel.

Will I ever buy grits again? Probably… if my girlfriend is visiting. Heh.
