The first grits I ever had was in 1963 when four of us were driving from Delaware to Daytona Florida for the 500 mile race. We drove all night and stopped in southern Georgia and we all ordered bacon, eggs and toast. There was this white stuff on the plate and my buddy Lee said out loud "what is this stuff" and I remember the waitress coming over and saying something like "ain't you boys ever had grits before?" Everyone in the dinner stared at us the rest of the time we were in there! Still have um now and then.
