Do you eat 'grits' where you live?

Poll - Total Votes: 16

Yes, can't live without `em.

No, the name is too gross to even consider putting that stuff in my mouth

Maybe, if I'm around my southern relatives so they think I'm one of them.

You can only vote on one answer.

Grits are not known in Canada nor are they ever served at home or in restaurants anywhere in Canada, therefore to a Canadian, grits are what we throw under a spinning car tire that's hung up on a patch of ice in a parking lot and we buy grit at Home Depot by the bag full!

Grits are ubiquitous around here but I don't really eat them myself. They are... alright. But my preferred porridge is Cream of Wheat.

Where I grew up in Ohio we didn't have grits as food, but we did have a Tim Hortons, so we were culturally closer to Canada then, haha. I had a girlfriend from Virginia who accused me of having a Canadian accent as well.

As long as when you speak aloud, that you end each sentence with a question mark inflection or word that infers a question has just been asked, you automatically qualify for a Canadian Citizenship.

I read someplace in a book called something like “the Art of Non-intimidating Conversation” that we should only ask question to obtain information.

REALLY?

@Heartlander Then what of the value of rhetorical questions as persuasive tools?
