Do you enjoy grits?

f they don't vote, then they can't complain about the outcome.

The numbers of participants does not change anything. If 30k+ people are complacent with allowing 42 people steer the direction of this Forum's general appreciation for something, then so be it, it is their fault for not taking the opportunity to cast their vote when they had the chance. :hmm:

How in God's name does what one person or 30,000 thinks about my personal preference have a bearing on it? The idea of a consensus on such a question is totally off the wall and useless.

Do I have to checked the grits poll before I eat a bowl to see if I like them or not?

I read in a different topic one person state that they loved grits, but they also felt as if they were probably in the minority viewpoint regarding grits on this forum...

I just wanted to figure out how accurate their suspicions were... :hmm:

 

[tenngun]

I think this was just toung in cheek. At least that's the way I took it. I don't think any one wants to tell any one what to eat or not.
Alden can come to my camp any time and I promise I won't serve him grits, Westex, you bettcha, if I was cooking them.

Maybe next we could argue about whether or not you put ketchup on your scrambled eggs.... :grin:

Salsa on the eggs, ketchup is for the taters, but not for the grits.

You are mighty openminded and tolerant for a nerd, tenngun. :wink:

I have four days to convince myself that is a bad idea... :hmm:

That was my point. No matter what a poll shows about people on the Forum "liking something", it's irrelevant. Unless you're inviting them for dinner. :wink:

Lookit, people learn. I know, some faster than others. But still, where Evolution is not dismissed outright we should at least hope to evolve. We may be animals but we don't have to act, or eat, like it. We adapt. Overcome our shortcomings. We need NOT reenact the failures and abuse our poor parents heaped on us...

...and on paper plates in the trailer park.

Use non-lead-based-paint on your windowsills no matter how good you remember it tasting, and eschew grits.

:haha:

 

[tenngun]

Alden I know your a Yankee and all , but you never put grits on a paper plate :nono:

 

[Alden]

I know you're not supposed to Tenn; it's impossible to tell where one ends and the other begins.

When it starts to taste good, you know you're eating the plate...... :haha:

Fwiw, when we two were part of 10th LA Infantry, PACSA we taught the Canadians to eat grits.
(The Canadians either liked them OR were too polite to tell "Duckie" that they didn't like them OR that they ate them & smiled, lest she quit cooking biscuits/cream gravy every AM. = CHUCKLE)

yours, satx

 

[sidelock]

YES

 

[tenngun]

I spect Canadians will thank her kindly for teachin'em what good taste is. Pity some folks who shall remain nameless don't have the sense of thier more northern kin.

Now if you use the cheap paper plates. Anything you put on them becomes a taco instantly if your trying to hold the thing and eat!

 

[satx78247]

Well there is THAT.
(Trying to teach most DYs to like grits is like trying to teach a hog to sing opera.)

yours, satx
