Grits + anything sweet = 
Grits can have ham, butter, salt, shrimp, anything savory but anyone who adds sugar or syrup is just making horrible life decisions and I, for one, worry about their future on this Earth.
Syrup he says, sugar he says, psh

Alabama has excellent seafood. Don't compare us to some landlocked state

Well, I guess you have to take that up with the southern old timers who are far more southern than yourself. They are wise men and if you'd just take a moment to sit down and listen to the World War II generation and the wisdom that they possess, you'd be a far better person in life.
Listening is a virtue, my son.

True story: growing up in Columbia, Missouri, we used the term "grits" to refer to trailer trash folk who lived outside the city limits.
It was apparently a pretty apt description.

It doesn't matter how you eat your grits, you're still a Yankee.

No but our main Big 12 rivals called us "slavers" and now we are "Yankees", you must understand its all so very confusing. I need therapy.

Anyone who eats grits with salt and pepper isn't a true southerner or else they are a transplant to the south and have no clue what is going on. Or, perhaps their family transplanted to the south generations ago and passed down thru the family the northern "salt and pepper" way to eat grits.
And if you DON'T eat salt and pepper on your grits, your Northern overlords will march in to make you...

I love listening to vets tell stories
But by god all the Southern wisdom that was imparted on to me teaches me otherwise. I mean thinking of sweet grits is like nails to a chalk board.
Damn, I could go for some spicy shrimp and grits. Who's up for a road trip to Charleston?

Yeah, we know you're not southern. You're Russian and eat cabbage soup.
