Get a bowl of sand, heat it up in the microwave, put some butter on it, eat it. You got grits. I am originally from Alabama. I ate grits once as a kid. It was back to all that artery hardening bacon, sausage, fried potatoes, gravy, biscuits, toast, eggs over easy for this country boy. I hate grits!

Here is a perfect example of a man who should have been RIF'ed at E-6! Hates Grits!! GEEEEZZZ

And no mention of hominy grits????

I'll mention it. Used to get hominy all the time when I was a kid. It was enough to gag a maggot.

I'm not from the South, but I like grits. Pat of butter, salt and mix in a chopped sunnyside-up egg. Mmmm.

Whats a grit?

[y2k_free_radical]

right-and i do love the girls so

[Husker24]

Can you even get grits in Nebraska, ive always wanted to try them. Also, what the hell is Okra?

[Eala]

She's a commie. Leave her.

Are you kidding? She's even more conservative (if only slightly) than me! But she is from an old New England family (also conservative)...

Actually, Berry is a joke. She has a white mother and black father. She decides to accept the black side of her life so she can fast track in everything she wants to do. But, her black father used to beat the white mother all the time, left them, mother raised daughter, daughter becomes famous, selects father's skin color as hers instead of the mother that raised her. BS.

I think her skin color is enough to classify her as black in the minds of most racists. Since the differences beyond skin color are not much, she is effectively black in most people's eyes.

Her option to be "white" is much less than you make it out to be.

Now, Reese Witherspoon is hot.

BTW Nice Job on the Free Iran protest, Nice pics!

Thanks! (Maybe I should promote it more...? *\;-)

She's just tricking you, messing up the grits is a dead giveaway. You should call John Ashcroft on her.

This is what we get when affirmative action is applied ot national standards of beauty.

That's nonsense. Beauty is subjective. Everyone has different tastes. Two guys out on the town will debate all evening which chicks are 10's and which aren't. Reading anything more into it is misguided.

"If I didn't know better, I would have thought they were talking about Halle Berry..."

I saw that movie where Halle showed her berries!

It was a defining moment in my life....

[Yeti]

ruins hers with maple syrup

I like that on fried grits.

[Pukin Dog]

Okra is living boogers. Some people like it in their Gumbo, others cannot stand the slimey stuff. Nasty. I've had grits in Oklahoma, but never Nebraska. Sooey!!

[jlogajan]

Now, Reese Witherspoon is hot.

See, this is what I am talking about. To me she has too flat a face.

[patton]

Go away, you traitor, you.

[Husker24]

Okay, now what exactly is "Gumbo" I know they eat it in Louisiana but thats about it.

If your store carries grits, you'll find them next to the oatmeal and Cream of Wheat. I wouldn't know as I have never lived above the Grit Line.

As for okra, have you ever had seafood gumbo? It's the round green things floating around in your gumbo.

My favorite okra is boiled with chopped onion aand tomato, but it's not for the uninitiated. Has a texture some call slimy, which doesn't do it justice.
