I don't think I did eat it for almost sixty years, but I'm sure it was this way: sweet and with butter, I don't like it salted...Do you like your grits savory or sweet?

I just had grits yesterday for breakfast. I make it with sliced Polish Kielbasa, black pepper, and a couple of shakes of good cayenne pepper. The sausage meat supplies the salt for a flavor-full balance. I find that a slightly spicy, savory recipe, makes even the worst coffee taste good. My coffee is by the way, strong enough to float a horse shoe.Just had a bowl if grits with butter, s&p. That was after a biscuit and gravy. What a great way to start a day!
With me, it depends on when I'm eating them. If for breakfast : milk, butter, sugar. If having them with dinner: Cheese, salt & pepper, especially shrimp & grits.I had grits for breakfast this morning
My wife got up a little later and asked what I had. She usually chooses something different
But she thought grits sounded real good
So I made hers.
Mine, grits a little butter, some cheese, pepper flakes and ground hot pepper
Her
Grits, butter,sugar and milk

I am presently in N.C. and I have shopped in a lot of grocery stores. I have never heard nor saw anything like you described? Please get the name of this so I can check again!LME, we Hoosiers had something similar, but we called it mush. You could buy it at the grocery. It came as a block or round roll much like slice and bake cookies. You fried slices of it, preferably in bacon grease, and served 'em topped with melted butter. Real health food! Thinking back on it, it was probably just grits in a block form.
Why ruin any perfectly good food with grits?!I like fried mush. I ate that quite a bit growing up as my Mom liked it so we ate what she ate for breakfast. I never experienced grits until I went into the army. Stationed at Ft. Polk in Louisiana, they served grits every morning. Standard southern faire I guess. The only way I could stand the dry gloppy grits was to put butter and syrup on them. If I eat them today, I put butter and syrup on them. I see recipes for Shrimp on grits. Why ruin perfectly good shrimp with gloppy grits underneath.

Search for polenta in a tube.I am presently in N.C. and I have shopped in a lot of grocery stores. I have never heard nor saw anything like you described? Please get the name of this so I can check again!
It’s all a play on the wonderful plant called corn. Grits uses just the kernels inside, the skin being removed, corn meal the entire kernel. Samp is a dried cracked corn product sold in markets here in Rhode Island. Some Portuguese restaurants here serve fried cornmeal mush same as I enjoyed on the farm in southern Ohio.Mush or polenta is boiled corn meal. Grits is ground hominy.
Can't remember the name of the kind that mom always got. Last time I was "home" my sister said the local stores don't carry it anymore. Outrage!I am presently in N.C. and I have shopped in a lot of grocery stores. I have never heard nor saw anything like you described? Please get the name of this so I can check again!
Ah friend, even those without teeth can enjoy grits.I eat it with my teeth....
And why ruin good grits by offering them to the unappreciative.Why ruin any perfectly good food with grits?!
Exactly!And why ruin good grits by offering them to the unappreciative.
Have you not??? Why Harriet Stow wanted to drive grits out of the world. When she met Lincoln he said ‘your the little lady that started this war’. Mel Gibson stood In a line at Stone Mountain and yelled in his best foghorn leghorn voiceNever seen such a little thing cause such a big fuss.
