    Your demise will be slow and painful followed by an eternity spent in a locked room with baba and a badly worn issue of Playboy from June 1957.

    You know what tastes really good with grits?

    Maple syrup.

    A big pat of butter, a little salt, and a nice pool of maple syrup. :diacanu:

    First time I ever saw grits was when I was in basic training (Kentucky--go figure).

    Halftime has been 36 times longer than the first half. Is the second half going to start soon or what?

    It's not a halftime show if there hasn't been a nip slip by now.

    The game resumes sometime in the next 20 years. The upcoming election will hasten it.

    Ew grits. Nasty tasteless stuff that only takes on the taste of whatever you dump over them. Best to skip those and go for a bagel instead. :P

    At some point, the military decided it wanted a 'healthier' Army, so it sent out a questionaire about eating habits. One of the questions was 'Do you put salt on everything you eat?'

    And I answered 'No.'

    Cuz, I don't put salt on ice cream.

    I also never saw grits until I was in the military (Air Force or Army, I can't remember for sure) but don't remember eating them until I met my wife (who isn't Southern either). I don't know how she started eating them.

    Grits are a southern thing then eh?

    I always thought foods like that were a black thing. :ramen:
