| You can buy it dry at latin stores and then reconstitute it. You can't buy it fresh, fyi. Make some posole! |

| Isn't it the same thing as grits? |

| Grits are the ground version of hominy. |

I love hominy in this:

| Whole foods had it dried. Soup section I think. |

| 14:26 here. They have it labeled as posole, but I believe it is the same thing. I make posole, not hominy, so I am not sure. |

| Hominy is a type of white corn. It's usually sold either canned or ground. |

| If it's fresh, it's called corn. To make your own hominy, you'd need lye -- not exactly a good artisanal project for a random Sunday afternoon. Buy the canned stuff and make a big pot of pozole. |
