I'm in the South, we do Grits, not Oatmeal. ;)<br/><br/>As I know many northerners have no idea what a grit is, it's similar to oatmeal, but made with corn. A surprising number of people who try grits for the first time... Southern grits, mind you... swear off of Oatmeal for grits... I've even converted a couple of europeans after a visit to our lovely cultural staple. ;)<br/><br/>Sadly, I don't care for either overly much; I'm much more likely to go for gravy and biscuits with a side of country ham... yumm. ;)
