I was impressed by Jamaican porridge recpies that made use of it, granted I can't really tell the texture from videos. I think that I would enjoy grits, but probably not as a porridge, I prefer more texture in porridge.
Edit to clarify, by "not as a porridge" I mean cooked thicker, more like polenta. Is polenta still considered porridge? The definition might be a bit of a cultural thing.
