No KETCHUP isn't made from cats. CATSUP is still made from cats.
All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me.

Re: Justification for War
Grits should NEVER be eaten from a buffet line -- the texture gets completely screwed. And use real grits at home -- not the instant crap or even "quick grits". It's not like it takes long to cook anyway.
I also recommend serving your grits with a side of iron skillet seared salt-cured country ham, but then I'm just an innocent backwoods Virginia country boy at heart.

Re: Justification for War
Oh, and I also share the British disdain for what's called the American mixing of savory and sweet foods. When I have bacon with anything that calls for maple syrup (and I only use real maple syrup... this is a must) I must have the bacon on a separate small dish so that the syrup doesn't touch it.
And I actually prefer the UK style bacon over the US cut, but it's fairly impossible to find. I've recently located a pork farmer in North Carolina that has been able to reproduce the UK process/cut but of course you have to order it and have it shipped.

Re: Justification for War
Good steel-cut oatmeal is my personal favorite. Grits is fine and good, but it can go terribly wrong, and too often does. I can make oatmeal.

Honestly, I would rather starve then eat grits. The only ones I have ever been exposed to are of the mass-produced for the military variety, but those are bad enough to make one resort to self cannabilism AND enjoy it rather then be faced with the alternative (needless to say, I just stick with the special K for breakfast 
).
As far as the whole sweet/salty flavor thing, my favorite dessert is rainbow sherbert covered with chocolate and caramel topping 
.

Wow, I figured everyone drenched their bacon in maple syrup. That's practically my favorite part of eating pancakes. I'm even looking at baking a batch of bacon cookies, with maple syrup glaze.
Just out of curiosity, what's the difference between UK style, and US style, bacon?

If it's anything like sugar cane molasses, you can keep it.

In the spirit of the thread, we should mention sorghum.
I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.

No. 
Sorghum does have the interesting property of burning the back of your throat like whiskey, though...
