It is made from either white corn or hominy. It can be fried but it is nothing like corn bread. You don't make it in to a batter like cornbread. You can make it in to a mush like you do oatmeal, and then let it set up and slice it off and fry it however. It is not polenta either but it can be used in various ways that are similar to making polenta.
I might not be as good at describing it so you can do a google search for the wikipedia page and perhaps grits recipes so you can get to know what it is all about. :)

Oh hay, do you want me to make a larger size of the pic for you? I sized it down a lot for my LJ. What size is your desktop resolution?

But with the hominy grits you just need to have franks. Each hot sauce has such a different flavor.
