You eat grits with butter and fried eggs chopped in, or with gravy.Grits are great.
And black-eyed peas.
And collared greens.
Fried okra.
Collard greens, I love. I've had fried okra, and it's not bad. I have also had black-eyed peas that I've liked, but I wouldn't travel for them.
But grits are awful. And I've tried (to the mockery of my Southern friends) to eat them with sugar and cream, and they're still no good. Tried them the "correct" way (with cheese, and pepper, or butter and salt and pepper), and they're still inedible to this damned Yankee.
No southerner would put sugar and cream in grits.
That is what God made oatmeal for.
You forgot bacon grease.
