When it comes to eating grits all I can say is it beats the hell outta oatmeal.

You're only saying that because you've probably only ever had instant quaker oats!

McCann's Irish Steel Cut Oatmeal.

Takes forever to cook, guaranteed to boil over several times causing a horrid mess upon the stove no matter how carefully you watch over them, but they are a totally different taste experience. Make a big batch, refrigerate, and microwave as necessary. (McCann's also makes an instant version, which is still better than Quaker instant, captures most of the flavor-quality of the long-cook type, but is a little mushier than I like). Wee bit o' cream and honey ... mmmmmm.
