I need help from my brothers in the south

I was raised in Iowa, but I love grits.

And molasses is good on biskets. I think I was born in the wrong area.

Thanks guys and gal for your help and input. I never heard of the lighter stuff myself. I guess if I can find time between trips to the catfish pond I'll just have to run to town to see what I can find. Thanks again.

They used to make sorghum syrup around where I grew up. From what I remember it was dark as hell, similar to blackstrap. Haven't had it in years but you would pretty much buy it at farmer's markets and fruit and vegetable stands and the like. Sand Mountain Sorghum, if I remember correctly, was the last one standing. Always came in a can.
