I like food.

Although some of the more exotic ethnic things aren't my taste, I will eat just about anything that you can find in your everyday grocery store.

Such as, grits.

And fish.

But there is something about seeing a sign taped up in the window of the Food Place At Which I Do Not Eat that says,

GRITS
and
FISH

...that makes me just slightly queasy.

I've seen that combination on menus and have always been able to resist.

It sounds like one of those things on the school cafeteria line when they run out of everything else, like collard greens and taquitos.

Well it would be better than fishy grits or gritty fish.

And the queasiness returns...

What can I say? I live with three little boys.

The visual image that just popped into my mind makes me queasy....

Grits and fish are not for the faint.

But can you make the combination cling to a stick for deep frying in oil?

Nate, where there is a will, there is a way.
