As a kid growing up, oatmeal, Ralston (was the best of all three) and cream of wheat. Now.......if oatmeal......steel cut oats, raisins, brown sugar and mix of whipping cream and milk. Cream of wheat OK too. As long as grits are cooked and not instant, grits are A#1. Butter and cheese, make a puddle of them on your plate and a couple runny fried eggs on top.....no need for any kind of bread or toast, but does require bacon. Leave out the bacon and you may be violating at least 5 or 6 state laws......or should be.

And to paraphrase Dirty Harry Callahan........."nobody and I mean nobody eats ketchup on a hot dog.......or malt-o-meal"

I've had grits twice and thought they were foul. I would try shrimp grits if they were heavy on the shrimp. I could at least pick the shrimp out and eat them.

Do shrimp grits have whole shrimp or tiny pieces of shrimp in them?

I’m sure! I could go the rest of my life and never eat a banana.

Oatmeal, cream of wheat, malt of meal, all of it is good, butter and a lil sugar, add maple syrup on occasion. Cup of hot coffee a slice of buttered toast good to go.

If there’s one thing I learned from My Cousin Vinny, it’s that “No self respectin southerner makes INSTANT Grits!”
