A food shopping trip to Buffalo is in order here if you need to stock up on hard-to-get U.S. ingredients.... Any Wegmans or Tops will have it.

Bob's red mill brand. Not sure where you can find them in leslieville, i get mine at essence of line in Kensington.I love grits, but it's hard to find them here, these are these best you can get in Toronto, makes great grits, and if you let cool, makes polenta!

I bought this product "Bob's Red Mill" corn grits in a Highland Farms in Mississauga. To be perfectly honest I have not tried them and don't know if they really are grits. The label says "also known as polenta" and the directions on the back focus on Italian polenta which makes me suspect. They also happen to be produced in Oregon which is not exactly the grits capital of the US. But they are organic, so that's a plus. And some would say a grit is a grit is a grit...it's just ground corn anyway so this product is probably real. I like mine stone ground and get them from Charleston South Carolina (usually when I'm home or when someone is coming to visit...my parents were just here and when the border guard asked what they were bringing my mom said "grits and BBQ sauce". The border guards reply was "sounds yummy").

They really are grits, When I go to the states, I always bring back grits, and the Red Mill brand is the same, If you let any grits cool in a pan, it will turn into Polenta, it all just depends on the colour of the cornmeal, In the states grits are usually off-white, the Red Mill brand are more yellow
