Polenta is our friend

Since Jeff's dental implant, I've made 900 batches of polenta, not grits, polenta. It's good but yeesh....
Well, then

It is good. You can buy it in plastic tubes at the King Soopers.

Speaking of King Soopers and Krogers, both of which I am a big fan of, mostly because of their produce, I discovered in Alaska last week that Fred Meyers is also Krogers. The box of tea is exactly the same, except it says Fred Meyers instead of Krogers. That wasn't the only indicator, of course.

I've never seen a Krogers store, but Ralphs is a SoCal institution. Their "house brand" is Krogers, so the two must be related corporately.

Yes, Kroger owns Ralphs.
