Rosemary, you'll have to try grits as prepared by a true southerner-- in a casserole made with cheese, pork sausage, oregano, garlic, and eggs. Also, people mistake grits for a cereal and think that they should be sweet. Instead, this dish is really similar to a side dish starch such as mashed potatoes and, if simply prepared, is best eaten with lashings of butter, salt, and pepper and accompanying bacon, eggs and toast. All the best, Susan Cochran
