11/20/2009 1:36:32 AM

^^ Grits ain't no Cream of Wheat

11/20/2009 1:38:44 AM

true enough

but they certainly don't have to be a savory dish all the time

11/20/2009 1:39:49 AM

i prefer my cream of wheat sweet like i like my oat meal, but i've had grits the same way and they're very similar

*shrug*

11/20/2009 7:06:47 AM

sweet porridge... oh the horrors!

11/20/2009 7:13:19 AM

^ don't you beat women to death for showing their face in public?

11/20/2009 7:27:11 AM

grits are best made with half and half

ala paula deen style

11/20/2009 7:39:06 AM

11/20/2009 7:50:21 AM

11/20/2009 7:55:00 AM

I have never had my grits any form of sweet. It sounds yucky.
I like 'em salty.

11/20/2009 7:57:08 AM

i've never had them sweet, but i wouldn't mind trying it

my favorite way to have grits is with a little redeye country ham gravy in them

11/20/2009 7:58:21 AM

I love cheese grits.

My favorite way to have grits is smothering just about any breakfast food.

11/20/2009 8:00:00 AM

i like to take the leftover grits that are kinda dried up just a little bit and no longer runny and put it between toast and have a grits sammich

11/20/2009 8:01:15 AM

^ I do that, too... it's even better when you add some of your left over egg and mix it with the grits then put it on toast

11/20/2009 8:06:59 AM

omg ihave to stop looking at this thread

11/20/2009 8:08:43 AM

Mmm. I'm having grits right now.
TWW always gives me great breakfast ideas.

11/20/2009 8:11:11 AM

yo sam if you know what pot liquor is and how to properly eat it then i might have to rethink this thing w/ deemarie


just kidding dear i lub you

11/20/2009 8:11:56 AM

I guess you'll be staying with DeeMarie bc I am not a fan of collards sorryyyyyyyy

I do know how to properly eat crawdads tho

11/20/2009 8:14:06 AM

i don't really care for collards either. we always used "pot liquor" to refer to the cabbage broth.

i fucking love that stuff. break up some fried cornbread in it. mmm mmm bitch

11/20/2009 8:16:31 AM

I find that grits can be treated like a savory food, with cheese and/or gravy, or like a hot cereal, with stuff like brown sugar or maple syrup.

11/20/2009 8:34:30 AM

^2 I thought it could come from collards, too?

11/20/2009 8:37:00 AM

yeah, it can, but i was just explaining how i've always used the term

11/20/2009 8:38:58 AM

oic

well I hate cabbage as well.. it would never work out between us

11/20/2009 8:40:02 AM

From reading NRR's posts on tww which mention his dietary habits, it seems like he is headed for deep trouble.

11/20/2009 3:05:58 PM

gonna die either way

11/20/2009 3:13:53 PM

Sweet and grits do not go together.

11/20/2009 3:15:00 PM

i've never noticed anything particularly bad about NRRs eating habits

maybe i just haven't been paying attention

11/20/2009 3:15:48 PM

nah, i eat terrible

[Edited on November 20, 2009 at 3:17 PM. Reason : not excessive fast food or junk food, just a lot of unhealthy home cooking]

[Edited on November 20, 2009 at 3:18 PM. Reason : i eat a lot of meat. i'm grilling all the time.]

11/20/2009 3:16:37 PM

I'm usually eating a lot of meat or eating like a rabbit. I've never worked out a healthy middleground

11/20/2009 3:59:31 PM

DEAR GOD THIS THREAD IS MAKING ME HUNGRY

11/20/2009 4:04:04 PM

I daresay unhealthy home cooking is better for you than fast food, or even nicer restaurant meals. Not that that makes it *healthy*, but pick your poison well.

As far as grits go, love 'em, but I've never found the need to branch out from "butter, salt, & pepper", "cheese", and "shrimp and"

If I want something to eat at breakfast with milk, brown sugar, raisins and other sweet items, I'll have oatmeal. Which can be really good if you don't do the instant stuff.

Show me that smile again. (Show me that smile)
Don’t waste another minute on your cryin’.
We're nowhere near the end (nowhere near)
The best is ready to begin.

Oooohhh. As long as we got each other
We got the world spinnin right in our hands.
Baby you and me, we gotta be
The luckiest dreamers who never quit dreamin’.

As long as we keep on givin’
we can take anything that comes our way
Baby, rain or shine, all the time
We got each other Sharin’ the laughter and love.

Hell yeah!

Oh and I asked for clarification, apparently it was salty grits she put the raisins and milk in. That's double
