Vitabrits are like Weetbix... same difference

weetbix? cereal, I am guessing.
Lorin, here's a pic from my own personal stash! My daughter has one of them for breakfast, and alternate days has Vegemite on toast, so she's not only a happy little vegemite, but also an Aussie kid! I'm so proud!
(another jingle for weetbix -
Aussie kids, are Weetbix kids)

on that subject, there's a new one from weetabix called not-made-from-wheat-made-from-oats-instead-abix
for some reason a kid has overdubbed this (but words are the same)

CovJr, the Weetabix they sell here in the States look exactly the same. I looked at the box this morning. They're produced under license in Canada.

I love the typical southern breakfast fare (biscuits, gravy, bacon, ham, sausage, scrambled eggs, etc.). But one of my favorites is cheese grits with a few shots of hot sauce. I can make a decent bowl of it, but there's a local BBQ place that makes the creamiest, cheesiest grits I've ever had--with a hint of garlic. Oh my god, delicious. I don't meet too many people who love grits as much as I do. I suspect it's because they just put butter in them, and never had a proper bowl.
Unfortunately, my breakfast these days is just a granola bar and cup of espresso. I'm in my "I can't believe it's summer and I still have 15 pounds I'd like to lose" phase. But it's working, I've dropped 15 already.

Is there any food in the world with a less enticing name than 'grits'?

From F.McClintocks Steak House:
Turkey Nuts
Ya’ll gobble up some deep fried turkey nuts, served with cocktail sauce.
They are what they say they are...deep fried turkey testicles.

Well that depends...
...if you're the typical all-American male
and think of grits as an acronym for
Girls Raised In The South, I imagine the idea of eating them could be appealing...
...said in my best Urkle voice, "did I say that?"
However, I'm with Malik. Cheese grits are daBomb!!!
Similar, yet different, to my Breakfast Mac and Cheese.

From what I remember, they taste as pleasant as they sound.
