Aside from one bite of my husband's just to see what they taste like, I've never had the desire to eat grits.

Butter, a touch of salt & BACON on the side. To keep the bacon crispy, it can't sit on the grits; I eat some with every mouthful of grits. If you try it without the butter, though & just bacon, it never tastes right, I don't understand it.

Before you decide you don't like grits or polenta, try it as I mention above! I don't blame people for not liking grits when I've seen the sorry slop that passes for them in many places. They shouldn't be gluey & flavorless. You just need to start with better quality stoneground grits, preferably from an heirloom corn like Floriani, YUM! Completely different experience!

Only once did I gave cheesy grits that were divine & that was at the Greenbrier. Otherwise, what sounds like a good idea, is worse than plain!

Definitely savory, I don't believe I've ever had sweet, really. Mushrooms, and caramelized onions, om nom nom!

Now that sounds delicious!(Sounds like a polenta dish.) I never had sweet either!

Anything I might not be crazy about or needs a little boost, I put onions, mushrooms & bacon on & it's suddenly the best. Oh, and cheese, too! Any veggie you don't like can be transformed by cheese &/or the bacon+onion+mushroom treatment!

With cheese! Mushrooms and jalapeños are good, too.

I dunno what grits are, but they remind me of my high school chemistry teacher, so I like them 360, which was a long and very bad joke.

Here you go: all about grits.

You should, of course, go ahead and tell the joke!
