grits
Grits refers to a ground-corn food of Native American origin, that is common in the Southern United States and eaten mainly at breakfast. Modern grits are commonly made of alkali-treated corn known as hominy.
Grits are similar to other thick maize-based porridges from around the world such as polenta. "Instant grits" have been processed to speed cooking.
The word "grits" derives from the Old English word "grytt," meaning coarse meal.[1] This word originally referred to wheat and other porridges now known as groats in parts of the UK. Maize, unknown in Europe in the Middle Ages, is a food derived from corn (a New World plant) and "corn" had been used to describe wheat products in many European regions. "Grits" may be either singular or plural; historically, in the American South the word was invariably singular notwithstanding its plural form (cf. such food names as "spaghetti" or "linguine", likewise plural in form).I didn't know that.

Leo, your image corrupts this page's layout (sometimes).
Would you like to resize or replace it? -

I have sympathy for animals, so I've become a vegetarian, though because of pizza -- which I believe was probably the Biblical manna which fell from heavens -- (imagine that, pizzas falling from the sky, and Moses and his followers catching the pizzas from hand as they fell ;))) I do not exclude from my diet, milk, cheese, or eggs. I mean, how can one tolerate pizza without cheese. It's unthinkable to me. Therefore, technically I'm called an Ovo-lacto vegetarian. Now to balance the good health qualities of the vegetarian diet, I thrive on lots of coffee, which clears up my mind sufficiently to participate in the Opera forum. If i haven't had enough coffee, I get lost somewhere between Presto and Blink, and have trouble expressing myself in a coherent sentence. As for Opera Presto and Opera Blink, they're both wonderful browsers, so with a glass of wine in hand (And by the way, I get my daily water supply from coffee and wine), I offer a toast to both.

Don't you have sympathy for vegetables!?

Of course. When I eat a vegetable, I fulfill it's primary purpose in life. Being eaten.
It smiles then and says, "thank you." -

Boiled/stewed some ready veggie-mix with mushrooms. Added an egg at the end of cooking.
Not exactly very tasty, but I hope it will be moderately nutritious...:left: -

Bought a box of cheap "beef-steaks", though I'm guessing it's not exactly beef and they're not exactly steaks.
Readying to taste...:babydon'tlook:Yeah, it rather tastes like bull shit than beef meat.
I'm still alive though;) -
