Walter Mondale had long used the nickname 'Fritz'. Jimmy Carter was tagged with 'Grits' since he was from the south (as are grits), and because it rhymed with Fritz. So the Carter/Mondale presidential ticket was known as 'Grits and Fritz'.

This historical Presidential Moment has been brought to you by Roadtrp...

Hey Lupo, grits are a regional dish often served at breakfast in the southeastern part of the US. They are a hot cereal like Cream of Wheat or oatmeal, but I believe they are made from corn. I have traveled to the south, but have never tried grits. There is a cute scene in the movie My Cousin Vinney about grits. As far as model railroading goes, most "grits" are found on sand paper or under the track as ballast. [:D]556

Yes, I'm still watching, but I'm suffering from what I call "Mr Ed Syndrome".


lets talk animals: what was Mr. Ed's syndrome? quite forgot, I was young when it was on,
with all respect for the people who love GRITS, as you discibe it, I think I know that as stuff i feed to my chickens
and that is 557!
