Southern Blue Corn Grits

 
 
 
 

What Makes This Throw Amazing:

  • Southern-made, stone ground, blue corn grits that turn a festive purple color when cooked!

  • Supports an American business, Homestead Gristmill, and helps employ NOLA community members in need.

  • Organic, Non GMO corn grown without chemical pesticides and fertilizers.

  • Functional throw that can be caught over and over and enjoyed more than once,

What This Throw Can Teach Us:

Every year tens of millions of dollars are sent abroad to purchase and import parade throws. Wouldn’t it be great if we could keep some of that business here in the USA and create jobs for those who need them? We can!

From the Producer:

“We use the single-step process of grinding with natural granite stones which preserves the nutritional value of the grain.”
