Shrimp and Grits is considered a delicacy around these here parts. I don't care how long I live here I still won't eat grits. And if you are a true Southerner you will never make or eat instant grtis.
GRITS - girls raised in the south.
Also left out most Southerners will have a Paw Paw (grandfther) and Mee Maw (grandmother)
Lastly if you want to take this to an entirely different level look up Sweet Potato Queens from Jackson, Mississippi.
(I can admit to just once making the chocolate stuff - what to eat during a tragedy)
