My grand parents lived in St. George when I was growing up.My great Aunt helped organize the whole Festival and was Granny Grits until her death a few years ago.They even named the big crossroad with the flashing light after her. They call it "The Nell Bennett Big Cross Road With The Flashing Light"

Seriously my family came from there and Parents moved back there about 12 years ago until Dad fell and broke his hip and now they live with me in Charleston.
I have never been to the festival as I have a fear of crowds of people.But I do like Grits.

FWIW, when I was in the Army back in the early 70's, the guys from Brooklyn called everybody from the South "grits". I reckon that's better than some other names I got called in the Army.
