It's not some 12th century Italian convention, it was brought from the new world and probably made into polenta in the 16th century or so.

i think at this point i'd just rather eat the seasoning sans grits

It is for super poor people, so no. I am not saying that in a bad way either, its just that if you have any money beyond paying rent and bills, then get something worth eating. Anyone who says they like it is doing some ironic hipster shit.

Most rich people have zero taste and just buy expensive shit to look high status. Either that, or they are so preoccupied with what made them rich they just assume expensive = good. That's why those $1000 pizza, wings, burgers, etc. exist.

I really want to like grits. I’ve ordered it at restaurants, had it made for me, tried making it myself. I don’t know why I want to like it so bad, but I just never can come around to it. It’s always just gritty, soggy mush.

Had the best grits ever at a wedding this weekend. The groom was from Louisiana and had his family cook all the food for the event. Grits, cheddar cheese, and a fuckload of butter. Pretty much one of the best things ever. I poured mine over some pork sausage, and it was heavenly.
