That's me! South Carolinian by birth and Charlestonian by the Grace of GOD! My mother, grandmother etc are all SOB's

[dixie sass]

When did the "awful" house start selling Grits?

[dixie sass]

Lived in Reading for two years and learned about Scrapple, Sho'fly Pie and other Pennsylvania Dutch goodies.

I like my tomato green and fried. And they taste best when I grow them myself.

[dixie sass]

Oh the beer sounds great, icey cold, almost cold enough to have ice crystals in it. It was the other stuff the 'innards'.

[nopardons]

Ahhhhhhhhh, I see. :-)

[dixie sass]

Sorry, I didn't mean to make you angry. Please except my apologies.

Southerners have no culture...folks up north are FAR superior and have ways of doing things much better...everyone knows that! How could anything originate in a place where everyone is uneducated and inbred. Thanks for setting this thread straight!

[nopardons]

Please excuse whatever it was, that you took for my bellicosity; that wasn't my intent. I was just trying to present some facts.

[Porterville]

True Southeners pickle pig noses, ears, and jawls and eat too much mayo on their bread. And every state has "the best barbeque" anywhere, (even though it in California), and nobody puts A-1 sauce on their steaks (it's disrespectful)... there is an IHOP or Waffle House on every corner.... and short guys always are the ones in the big trucks.

[Porterville]

Your thinking of Miluo or Millet..

[nopardons]

And just WHERE , in any/all of my posts, did I say, or even imply such as you smarmily wrote ? Please CCP my exact words,in reply, as mine own refutation.

Your thin skin and biases are showing;bless your heart. :-)

[nopardons]

It's made from millet, but is called something else; the name escapes me at this late hour. It's VERY like grits though.

[teldon30]

No...i can just read between the lines quite well...you're fooling no one.

[Porterville]

They mix the millet with sour milk an sugar for dessert and use mix it with any combination of meats, sauces and oils... palm oil (really bright orange) is common and so is peanut sauce... Where I was in the Western Sub, they pronounced it Mee-luo,

[nopardons]

You see what you want to, NOT what's there, nor the intent behind the words. Enough of the bloody " victimhood " of Southerners, already. Grow up, wise up, and stop being your own worst enemy. ;-)

Ask yourself why neutral facts bother you so much.All I am " guilty " of, is posting unassailable facts . LOL

[nopardons]

They cook it and serve it as side dish, in South Africa, with just about everything. Like grits, it can be a breakfast food, but it is also served as a side dish with diner. My son-in-law and his sister, have yet to send me any recipes, where it is mixed with meat/s. It's the way it's served, by Africaners, that I am talking about, from Jo'burg to Pretoria,to the Free Orange State. And then there's something called Pootckies ( that isn't the right spelling, forgive me, I wrote it phonetically. , which it is also served WITH, not mixed into.

Haven't they always? You can get a small or large bowl, with or without cheese.

Their grits are actually very good.

[Porterville]

I was in the bush in a whole other part of the continent... probably be way different

[nopardons]

Most probably. I stated, in my original post, that I was talking about South Africa ... meaning the nation; not a region.I am only familiar with that one nation's dishes. LOL
