Grits

In the classic American breakfast, grits are a mushy, cream-of-wheat staple. All their favorite foods were slimy, squishy, or creamed. Even worse, it recommends cheesy additions alongside toast and bacon for individuals who have missing teeth. I doubt anyone actually eats these; hence I doubt the health benefits. Stop pretending. Grits are better when smothered in butter and salt. There is no Cracker Barrel advertising or visits to Grandpa’s farm that can convince Millennials to stay.

Prunes

Prunes are dried plums that are extensively used for their juice for persons with stomach difficulties. Many Millennials are blinded by the fruit’s laxative-like effects, so they can’t notice the health benefits. Gimmicky “slimming tea” is unnecessary if you have some prune juice in your pantry. Prunes should stay Grandma’s basic bellyache treatment, not the panacea for every ache, suffering, or sickness. That’s it! It’s not even that good. Its lousy medicinal flavor hides the novelty and health benefits from all of you.
