I will make a deep dark Southern confession here... I hate cooked grits.
I spent a lot of time with my grandparents growing up, and my grandmother, while her biscuits kicked ass, could not make grits to save her life. Overcooked, pasty and congealed. It was like eating wall paper paste. And to this day, I cannot eat cooked grits - horrid flashbacks. Quaker Instant is my brand. I eat them mixed in with my scrambled eggs.
