What do you think of grits as a survival food?
Don't know if I've ever had any.
Can you explain what they are please?

When you say survival food, are you thinking of long term storage? (I love grits)
Here you go Arsey. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grits
Well I would think if you have it stored right. Kinda like parched corn. ARSEY you have never hade grits?
I agree. I just don't know what, if any oil content they have.
They're great for survival food. I survive on them every day. Grits and eggs, can't beat it. Mac

Thanks Crashdive, for the link.
If it's derivative of corn it must be good. Don't know how nutritious it would be though.
Runs with Beer,
No I don't think so. Even when I was in the US I think I avoided it.. the mind plays horrible tricks you know!!!

Nutritious? Add enough butter, cheese or bacon and you won't care!
If a real man wanted to eat corn for breakfast, he should eat corn the way it was meant to be eaten, Cornflakes in a large bowl with 1/4 bottle of whiskey. While eating repeat, "Are YOU talking to ME"........
hopeak, You aint right man,Ha Haaa
I love grits! It's a great backpacking food as well.

I love grits. With butter, sugar and half a dozen slices of crisp fried bacon. I carry a couple packs of Quaker instant grits in my hunting pack along with all the other pogy bait that finds its way into the pack.
1. If it's in your kit and you don't know how to use it....It's useless.
2. If you can't reach your kit when you need it....Its useless.

"Quaker Instant Grits" Must be a southern thing. Haven't noticed that on the shelves here.Originally Posted by klkak

All of this talk of Grits reminds me of the movie "My Cousin Vinney"
Why's that?
Was it Corny?

Are you talking about the stuff in the bowl, The scrambled egg look-alike thing ?

Ive never herd of parched corn being called Grits before. It looks quite nice though
A wise person does at once, what a fool does at last. Both do the same thing; only at different times.
Have you seen the movie?
ok ok - there's a scene where Vinny (a guy that's never been out of NY City, played by Joe Pesi). He's down south at a dinner. He asks in a real thick NY accent "What exactly is a grit?"
Anyway, cute and funny movie. Rent it if you get a chance.
Yes, those are grits. Lots of people like to put butter and cheese in theirs. Some even put sugar but that makes them runny.
What's so crazy about standing toe-to-toe saying I am?

When I make them for myself, I like them runny. While there cooking I stir in a couple of eggs, Yummy!
