Welcome to the world of Quaker Instant Grits, Butter flavor, if you've ever found yourself waking up on a weekday morning, totally drained and ready for a warm, filling, and satisfying breakfast. This little packet looks like a lifesaver on so many mornings.

We have a great selection of breakfast items at Treatspree, but the Quaker Instant Grits Butter 0.98 oz, 10-count pack is a virtual sellout.

What is grit, anyway?

Though grits are common in the Southern United States, they may sound like something new if you didn't grow up there. Do not be deterred by that, however. Grits are a porridge-like food that is cooked from ground corn. It's the savory brother of oatmeal, but it's smoother, more versatile, and, well, more comforting on a cold morning.

Quaker has been producing its grits for years, and this instant version is just as delicious without the need to stand in front of a stove for 20 minutes.

That is because when you add the butter, it incorporates the air to make the butter flavor.

Among the various flavors offered for Quaker Instant Grits, butter is the most like home cooking. Rich, a little salty, creamy, with a taste that you feel was stirred into the mix, even if you just added the hot water to a bowl.

The flavor is not greasy or synthetic. It's just enough to dress up and go over the top with additional ingredients (cheese, hot sauce, or a fried egg on top) or simply eat on its own when it's time for a quick and easy meal.

Ways to Level Up Your Butter Grits

Plain butter grits are already great, but if you want to get a bit creative, here are some easy add-ons that work really well:

• Shredded cheddar cheese — stir it in while the grits are still hot for an extra creamy texture
  
• A fried or poached egg on top — turns it into a proper meal
  
• Crispy bacon bits — adds a nice salty crunch
  
• Hot sauce — just a few drops if you like a little kick
  
• Sautéed spinach or mushrooms — for a savory, filling bowl
  
• A pat of real butter — yes, extra butter on butter grits is absolutely a valid choice

Who Should Buy the Quaker Instant Grits 10 Count Pack?

Quaker Instant Grits vs. Regular Grits — Is There a Difference?

Fair question. The primary distinction is in time and texture.

The regular (stone-ground or old-fashioned) variety of grits needs 20 to 45 minutes to cook and is slightly coarser (coarser grain) and more pronounced in corn flavor.

Quaker Instant Grits are already cooked and dehydrated, meaning they take just 1-3 minutes. The texture is smoother, the taste has a little more uniformity, and the preparation is virtually a breeze.

In terms of day-to-day usage, the instant version will take the cake. Well, if you're preparing an extra special brunch menu for the weekend, it's ok to use a slow cooker. Other than Monday to Friday? The move is Quaker Instant Grits, butter flavor.
