Daniel,
My work may be done! For years back when I first started riding beyond the heart of Dixie, I pondered the plight of the poor, underprivileged folks far and wide having no exposure to the wonders of ground-up corn fixed just right. I even wondered if perhaps my calling in life might have been to spread the word about that delicacy!
I received a few invitations from restauranteurs in far away places to return with some grits and cook them there... I was told that if they liked them, they would be added to the menu. It occurred to me that I just may have been destined to become the 'Johnny Appleseed' of grits! Alas, I did not follow-up on that...
My procrastination may have delayed the spread of the 'good news', but in my heart I just knew such a wonderous thing would not long remain isolated to one specific geographic region. Having already learned that 'redneckery' is also not confined to one particular region, it appears this will certainly spread far and wide now that such a 'hey y'all, watch this...' event includes this sort of sport...
Watch for a menu item addition coming soon to a restaurant near you: The desperate plight of non-southerners is about to end!!!
