I guess this would come under the heading of ordering something familiar
out of a sense of adventure...;  )

Sometimes, though, restaurants offer something as a special and then, if
no one orders the dish, they cut back on prep or availability for part
of the time the special is offered, sort of a phantom special. I wonder
if maybe you were the first person to order the grits in several days?

Obviously the proper response to such grits would be to take a line from
Joe Pesci and say, "It takes at least 20 minutes to cook real grits. You
must have some kinda license to violate da laws of physics, huh? I got
no maw yoose faw dis guy..."
