I don't particularly care for grits, but this recipe almost makes me want to try them again. It sounds tasty!

Just have to ask, what exactly are grits?

Ah grits. A Southern experience. They are actually broken grains of corn.
They have the consistency of cream of wheat when cooked.

Sort of like hominy? Had that when I was younger and wasn't a big fan, its a texture thing for me- but your recipe sounds good- just might have to try it again.

No grits aren't like hominy. More of a cereal type thing. As I said, kind of like cream of wheat or cream of rice.
