Thanks for the correction in spelling. My fingers get going and I don't usually take the time to look up spelling. It was underlined in red, though. That should've been my first clue that it wasn't spelled correctly. DUH!

"Grits is one of those country-boy words that is both singular and plural-like deer, elk and sheep. I think the singular is appropriate when there's a modifier that makes it clear one is talking about something specific. Like, 'Grits are good for you, but these here grits is tasty.'"~~Joe Wrabek
