It's very easy to find Bob's Red Mill products here, they are even
sold in the bulk section. However, the only Bob's grits I see are the
yellow cornmeal type, which is labeled polenta too. I don't know if
it's flint corn or dent corn. My idea of what makes grits Southern is
hominy (grits) and that's why I think Quaker is the national brand to
look for, not Bob's Red Mill. Cornmeal is used for mush and polenta.
Hominy is used for grits.
