I never liked grits until i took a trip to Savannah, Georgia and I had Shrimp & Grits and I was hooked. Bought some home with me and have been buying it ever since. I put cheese and garlic in mine. Yummy yummy good. I did taste some polenta in a Las Vegas restaurant and I really liked it too, but never have tried that. Kind of tasted almost the same to me, but the polenta was a little more creamier, if I remember correctly. Would have liked their recipe.

when we first moved to SC (hubs was born and raised outside of Atlanta - me, native western NYer!) I tried to make grits. Thought it might be like cream of wheat, lol. Put it in a pot, went about my business, came back in 20 mins and had this giant ball of glue in my pot. Took it to hubs in a bowl and asked him if a grit was always that big!
Never liked them until I had some in Charleston. A resaurant there makes them with whipping cream, butter, and other wonderful things! they dont taste like any other grits I ever ate down here! I could eat these 3 X a day. And, almost all home cooking places serve them at all meals too. sharet
