We should take a poll: Who doesn't have milk with cereal.

Me so far and never will. If I want mush, I'll eat oatmeal. And I'm sorry to you southerners but you can keep grits down there.

Edit: I'm updating this to include y'all. I've been hearing it more and more on TV. And just no.

Always liked milk with cereal. (If you eat the cereal fast, it doesn't get mushy.)

I don't think I've ever had grits. I've had oatmeal though.

More ice storm aftermath sadness…
This is what’s left of an absolutely beautiful, gorgeous stand of clustered oaks out on the front lawn of a funeral home down the road.
It’s like a giant just stepped right in the middle of it…

I eat oatmeal every day. Sometimes my DH eats cereal with milk but mostly oatmeal.
And the only way I can eat grits are mixed with an egg. Or with cheese on top

Oh my goodness . . . sad to see those beautiful old oaks fall over like that. Just goes to show how heavy ice is . ..

How do you cook the egg -- hard boiled? (I'm trying to visualize this in my head -- because I'd never put an egg with oatmeal. But I guess grits aren't even close to oatmeal.)

Yea, in the 46+ years we’ve lived here, I’ve never seen it this bad. On a brighter note, the vast majority of trees appear not to have suffered that fate, but, however, have lost a lot of branches.
There are so many trees here in Central Texas that it really won’t even make a noticeable dent, but, those property owners that were once averse to trimming their revered ( ) trees back, may think otherwise after this event.
And, it’s not like trees don’t grow back…!!!

GA has made grits into fine cuisine for dinner - shrimp and grits.

Scrambled. Yeah don't put an egg in oatmeal. Only mixed with the grits

I looked up grits and they're made from cornmeal. So shrimp and grits probably taste good together!

Thank you. I feel better now.

There are a few Cracker Barrel restaurants in the Northeast , NJ, RI, MA and I think CT. All USA locations have the same menu to include grits.
