I confess my most vivid association with grits (and one with which I 
sympathize utterly) is the big grit scene in "My Cousin Vinny", in 
which a witness's testimony on the timing of a murder he allegedly 
witnessed is tripped up by his statement that the event in question 
took five minutes, and occurred in the time it took his breakfast 
(grits) to cook. "Were dese MAGIC grits? Are we ta assoom duh laws of 
physics were tempararrily suspended in yaw kitchen while YAW grits 
were cooking, when it takes the rest of duh whole grit-eatin world 20 
minutes ta cook grits? Is it POSSIBLE you need to change yaw 
testimony??? Huh??? Yuh honnuh, I got no maw use faw dis guy."

I haven't seen the movie, but there is such a product as instant grits, which cooks in 5 minutes.
