What's wrong with instant grits?
- iheartcooking Jan 28, 2014 10:56 PM
Consensus seems to be instant grits are a crime against nature. That's all they seem to sell at the 5 or so grocery stores I frequent. I'm willing to go out of my way to find slow-cooking grits but I'd like to know if it's worth it.
I'm not a grits expert...but I purchase the Quaker Oats Brand grits that cook in about 20 minutes. I rarely have them with eggs for breakfast, but I use them for making Shrimp & Grits. They're only about $2 when on sale...maybe $3 when not.
I use both and the instant are fine, especially if you are going to add stuff to them. Try both and see which you prefer.
My dad grew up eating grits and he doesn't care for the instant. The regular Quaker Oats grits are only available in our area at the commissary at the Air Force base. Every grocery store in our area only carries the Quaker Oats instant grits, the only other option is Bob's Red Mill, which is labeled as grits/polenta, but I find the texture to be a bit coarse.
I came across some bags of Sam Mills yellow grits at Grocery Outlet last year that were very good, but haven't seen them since.
Are you asking about instant or quick? Instructions for 'quick' are cook for 5 minutes, though I prefer to cook them longer, more like 20 minutes. They are fine.
I haven't bought instant in a long time, so can't give a good description of how they taste or look.
There is a difference between grits (or any other ground grain) that cooks faster because it is ground more finely, and one that has been precooked and dried.
In general, to give any version a fair shake, cook it longer than specified on the package, adding more water if needed.
Are you talking about instant or quick-cooking grits. These are two different things. Instant grits come in individual packets (like instant oatmeal) and you ad boiling water to the bowl. Quick-cooking are actually cooked over heat in a pot and take 5 minutes (package directions) or longer as others here have said if you want a thicker, richer consistency. Quick-cooking grits are absolutely fine to use, while instant are horrible. I have attached pictures for clarification.
edit: sorry for the almost duplicate post @paulj.
Yes, it is worth it. The instant ones are gummy and insipid. I don't eat grits all that often so when I do, I go for a coarse, stone ground variety. I'm still working on a big bag I got at the Charleston Farmers Market.
<What's wrong with instant grits?>
Nothing, if you are looking for a School Glue substitute, or maybe wall paper paste.
re: Uncle Bob
When was the last time you cooked instant grits?
re: Uncle Bob
I concur. About six months ago I was in an office at breakfast and a fellow had the Instant Grits red Eye gravy pack. He offered one and I tool it out of curiosity and not to offend him. It wasn't worth shooting, as I suspected. The Quick Grits, as has been pointed out, can work but it is really a diluent and not an enhancement. The real thing, with coarse consistency, cooked slowly (with milk if you like) holds up to anything. Quick grits is never stiff enough to make the little volcano into the caldera of which you pour red eye gravy and can then make little rivulets so the lava runs onto the biscuits and ham below. Also, leftover real grits makes excellent fried grits which Modern Chefs will sell you as a "grit cake."
re: kagemusha49
Cheese grits with an over easy egg are heaven on earth. I just recently started making long cook grits in my rice cooker and am now a grit lover.
re: kagemusha49
I always found that line to be peculiar. I think anyone who has never cooked grits would think that the 'can' Joe Pesci was referring to was a metal can, like a can of soup. But when and where I grew up in the south, I think there was only one choice for grits in the store and it came in a can, but a cardboard can, ie, the cylindrical one with the Quaker oats guy on it. So in my mind, not only did self-respecting southerners eat grits from a can, that was pretty much all there was to the best of my memory!
re: ferret
Uncle Ben's is not Minute Rice. It's parboiled rice; parboiled rice is actually a centuries-old traditional product as such.
Anyway, I have no love of instant oatmeal, instant farina, instant grits: all are too insipid. I prefer long-cooked oats, farina and grits. Much more character and better flavor.
re: PotatoHouse
I was just thinking this!
I am a NYer I know little of grits but for the 20 times I watched this movie
re: PotatoHouse
Sorry, PotatoHouse, but I guess all those friends of ours in Nashville and thereabouts must respect themselves for all the wrong reasons, because they all use the Quaker (or store-brand) quick-cooking variety. As did I, and still do (Albers, out here on the Coast). I do have several jars of CORN grits still left from the ten-pound bag I bought through Amazon a while back, but that's what I use for polenta. Thing is, I don't cook ANYTHING for breakfast that takes more than ten minutes, max. Today's garlic cheese grits took exactly that.
The INSTANT grits, though, are an abomination.
re: Will Owen
That's the biggest problem with today's world...too many people with no self respect.
re: PotatoHouse
PotatoHouse I thought you were a new Englander. Like Will Owen I grew up down south and my mother made grits with a pat of butter and a fried egg for breakfast on many occasions before I left for school. Quick grits from the cardboard tube was used regularly and there is no shame in it. Too many people have come to rely upon joe pesci's line without knowing anything. That said I can't say that I have ever tried or even tasted instant grits. Don't plan on starting now.
re: Bkeats
re: hazelhurst
Yah got me. I stand corrected. I still stand by my statement that quick grits are widely used though. When mother is trying to get the kids fed and out the door to catch the bus to school, quick cooking grits are her friend.
re: Bkeats
Well as I remarked elsewhere, I've used them and done OK..not the Real Thing but you can get away with it. I have had luck with them as fried grots but I admit to putting lots of butter, garlic, mushrooms on it so it's not hard to wolf down
re: PotatoHouse
We all have different views and differing experiences.
As a life-long Southerner, I don't know any "native" that uses stone-ground grits. Growing up, and to this day, I only know people who use "quick" grits.
I cook quick grits, but I usually cook them for 45 minutes to over an hour.
Instant grits...had some when I was a kid. Still remember and don't want to do that again.
I hear of people on the internet using stone ground grits, but I don't know of anyone personally.
The only other thing I can confess to is using Bob's Red Mill Yellow Grits. When making polenta this is what I use.
What's wrong with instant grits?
Nothing in particular beyond the fact that they have no texture, little flavor, and end up a gluey mess.
Quick grits are less of an abomination, but only less...
As for how long ago did I have some instant grits?
My son made a couple of packages of them early last Friday morning before we went hunting wild pigs.
While the grits tasted like mush, my son cooked them, so they were great.
Also asking a Southerner a question like that is like asking a Yankee from New York or Chicago what's wrong with the pizza from outside of their precious cities.
Down here you'll receive a fair share of raised eyebrows, and a few bless your heart's..
Go out of your way to find some, but make sure that they are hominy grits, and not corn meal (it will say on the package). Serve them plain with butter and salt, don't add sugar. Treat them like mashed potatoes, minus the sour cream.
re: deet13
re: deet13
What are hominy grits?
Look at the label of the label of the quick box.
Mostly about Italian v Southern ways with corn. Last paragraph talks about hominy and the arcain term 'hominy grits'.
re: paulj
Oh Lord, spare us from the fury of the hominy discussion.
As for hominy being an arcane term; it ain't that arcane in my neck of the woods.
Especially considering that you can pick up both colors of hominy, canned or dried, nixtamalized and non-nixtamalized, grits and masa at most of our local shopping centers and the box stores.
re: deet13
I quote the Anson Mills page
"This next definition of hominy is arcane: hominy grist (not "grits") is any fresh-milled corn grits that comes out of a stone mill. "
re: paulj
With all due respect to the arguably admirable Anson Mills folks, I find their labelling of what they call "Hominy Grits" to be deceptive, and the quoted statement but a lame attempt to justify it. I'll admit that my Southern exposure was limited to 27 years in Nashville and environs, with regular trips to Kentucky and Georgia, and every plate or bowl of grits I had carried that alkaline "whang" of hominy. In that part of the world "hominy " MEANS nixtamalized corn, hominy itself being a common and well-liked food. From that standpoint, Anson Mills' description of their "hominy grits" as simply ground from "hominy corn" is just weasel talk.
re: Will Owen
The only grits that I've cooked that were specifically labeled as 'hominy grits' have been Quaker and Albers. I've never had occasion to do a blind taste test to compare these with grits/polenta. It's hard to separate texture (due to grind) and color (yellow v white) differences from taste ones.
I am also familiar with hominy, but in Mexican and Andean dishes, as opposed to Southern.
re: paulj
Hominy is more "Northern Southern," i.e. the northern reaches of the old Confederacy. Plain buttered canned hominy with just salt and pepper was common on my (Wichita, KS) paternal grandparents' table, unknown on my (Northern Illinois) maternal ones'. But it's a standard item in any grocery in Kentucky or Tennessee, usually both yellow and white. If the dry product is available it would be due to the burgeoning Latino population, and probably found only in their stores.
re: iheartcooking
Anson Mills is the brand that 'chefs' like to buy, but with shipping their prices are unrealistic for most of us. I wonder what 'self respecting Southerns' find when they go to the grocery. Or do they all shop as specialty shops and historic mills?
re: paulj
What 'Southerns' find depends on where they are. Grocery stores carry different brands but there's lots of disgusting instant/quick white grits brands here too (in SC, NC, GA) Crappy, tasteless wallpaper paste and convenience sells everywhere. But there are good yellow grits here and many stores carry some milled nearby. And more stores willl carry them if people ask for them. And any smart local business group discovers that a local product from a local mill can draw attention. There are lots of local mills and people have been seeking them out. I give bags from Adluh and Boykin Mill as presents, both are in/near Columbia SC and both have web sites. Anson Mill is located here too but i can count of at least 10-12 mills in SC and more in NC and GA. Good stoneground grits need lots of water and slow cooking for minimum 30 minutes - I go at least 45-an hour. And just a little milk, no damn cream, salt and butter to finish.
What passes for breakfast shrimp and grits in fancy restaurants and cooked in places like SF is just sad - maybe inevitable but miserable and embarassing. I made the old style for friends from Chicago area: very simple, slow cooked stone ground yellow grits, quick stock from shrimp shells and reduced, lots of small creek-size shrimp up from the coast sauteed in butter and bacon drippings, grits in a bowl, shrimp and stock quick blended, poured over shrimp. Hot strong coffee, citrus sections and homemade buttermilk biscuits w/muscadine jam.
You just don't need all that other crap, but it impresses the tourists I guess and lets you charge high dollar. Makes me sad sometimes.
re: iheartcooking
Can you find corn meal or polenta?
re: chefj
To wit, from Anson Mills on this subject:
Many folks ask us to define the differences between grits and polenta. As we noted, most grits, in the American South, are traditionally made from dent corn. In Italy, most polenta is made from flint corn. Italians began to cultivate flints from the Caribbean around 1500 and developed a then new European foodway, polenta di mais, or cornmeal mush.
When milled and cooked to similar forms, flint holds its particle texture longer than dent. Hence the famous beading texture and palate "grip" of properly made polenta. Flints also have different basic flavor profiles when compared in similar cookery to dents. Flints possess more mineral and floral notes, dents more "corn" flavor upfront, followed by supporting floral and mineral notes.
This contrast begets a broader discussion of polenta, grits, cornmeal, and mush. Are they just different forms of the same basic food idea? Yes and no, depending upon whom you ask. According to many food historians and the USDA, all forms of milled dry corn are some iteration of cornmeal, and all foods cooked from any of these forms are an iteration of mush.
Polenta, according to historians and the USDA, can be made from any corn and milled to any state using any milling equipment and technique from coarse "grits-like" texture to fine flour. But all of us at Anson Mills know something about 17th and 18th century European reduction milling techniques—and how that changes the game. At its introduction to Italian farming, polenta di mais was regarded as animal feed and milled in any fashion. Yes, the original forms of cooked polenta were no more than congealed porridge. But a century later, the reduction milling techniques used by Italians to make polenta di mais—when resources were available—determined polenta's unique characteristics. In this process, corn was milled slowly to large pieces, then those large particles were passed though the mill again to make them smaller, and again to make them smaller still, until the desired uniform particle size was achieved. Reduction milling yields grist of extremely uniform particles for even cooking. And because reduction milling produces less milling heat, the flavor and texture in hard flint corn is preserved.
At the hand of Italian artisans and their quest for precision, polenta di mais evolved from multiple-pass reduction milling. American cornmeal and grits, in contrast, evolved as a contest to mill corn easily and get it into the pot with utmost speed. Nearly all corn milling in pre-industrial America was single pass, yielding grist with a wide range of particle sizes. American millers were derided in Europe for being impatient "single pass" technicians. Ultimately, when one compares polenta di mais to grits, cornmeal, or corn flour, it is reduction milling that sets polenta apart visually, texturally, and even in terms of flavor. Predominantly made from otto file, or eight-row flint over the last few centuries, polenta di mais in Italy (and at Anson Mills) has a different flavor profile, a different finished mouthfeel, and a different textural makeup than mush made from Southern heirloom dent, coarse cornmeal, or grits. Simply, we grow Italian heirloom corns and mill them with 17th and 18th century European artisan techniques to achieve the various heritage forms of polenta di mais.
So if you were wondering whether at Anson Mills polenta, grits, cornmeal, or corn flour are all the same thing, the answer is an emphatic NO. Elsewhere, with the exception of the best farms and mills in Italy, all bets are off."
re: Karl S
I'd love to have been around when they were ginning up that copy. reminds me of "Cigar Afficianado"'s flights.
To the original question, though I posted up thread, the answer as to what's wrong is "everything." The man who invented it should have ben drowned in his crib.
As an experiment I used some quick grits after this post came out, trying to improve it . It works, as I noted, as a diluent. It is not a contribution to flavor (or "profilels" as I now know to say.)
re: chefj
I read this thread earlier today. I was intrigued, because I have only ever had grits someplace like Shoney's, for breakfast. I don't know, but I would guess that such a place might use the "quick" kind, or some other shortcut. So I want to try the real thing. Later in the day, I was in our local grocery store (local being in NE Ohio). I thought I'd look for grits. The cereal aisle only had Quaker, both the instant and quick varieties. I chose to check out the baking aisle next, where I found a bag from Bob's Red Mill. That package was labeled
also known as
I immediately recalled this discussion, and especially "Those are not Grits."
So now I am wondering - grits, or not? I'd like to try the real thing, to see if it as good as so many above have claimed. But I doubt that I am going to order online or some such. So do I try the Bob's stuff, or do I wait until my next trip to the South and then buy some there?
If it helps, here is a link to the Bob's product. The package on the paged linked says only "Corn Grits", but there is a video further down the page, and it shows a package with the label I saw today. Anyone, please tell me what you think!
re: Cheez62
BRM now sells white corn grits, also labeled as 'southern style'. I've not seem them in a store yet. Cooking instructions are the same as for the yellow ones.
Are they grits? Some would say yes, others no. For some the distinction between yellow and white corn is paramount. For others it's the grind. American stone ground produces a mix of fine and coarse particles. Anson mills talks about the Italians perfecting a multipass milling that produces a uniform grind. Part of what 'purists' don't like about Quick grits (whether Quaker or Albers), is the uniformity. Some distinguish between using flint or dent corn. Others say it a matter of how you flavor them.
I like to use these BRM 'grits or polenta'. I don't really care whether the resulting product is called grits or polenta. They may be the best corn many of us outside of the South can buy in a grocery.
Real stone ground grits are a whole different food than instant or quick grits.
Think about the difference in texture and flavor between instant oatmeal and steel-cut oats. Just not the same food.
Living in Georgia, I have access to various types of stone ground grits - one of our local farmers grinds theirs from dent corn. You have to float the bits of husk off before cooking them, and it still takes a couple of hours. But the flavor is so corn-ish, the texture is chewable but not chewy...you know you're eating corn, not Cream of Wheat.
re: Tripeler
When you are on public assistance and shop at food pantries and instant grits is all they have to offer.
That's what's right about them.
re: ipsedixit
Good point, agreed!
I was surprised to find, at my neighborhood grocery (nothing upscale), 2 new types of grits (besides the usual Albers quick) - Quaker Old Fashioned and Bobs Red Mill White Southern style.
I've used Bobs Red Mill yellow grits/polenta before, and the white stoneground grits that Trader Joes carried for short while.
I made a small batch of the Quaker for supper (with sausage and fried eggs). The package recommends 20 minutes cooking with a 4:1 ratio. Taste was basically the same as other grits that I've had. Texture was like the stoneground, due to a mix of grain sizes, and some bits of hull.
I enjoy a smooth creamy texture (e.g. Quick) just as much as coarser texture of stoneground and OF. I enjoy a similar variety in oat or wheat porridges (smooth Scottish oats, coarse cut and whole groats, smooth Cream of Wheat and coarse cracked wheat).

That being said, this component is absolutely fantastic! The functionality of it is unbelievable, and the support staff is so helpful that the poor UI really doesn't seem to matter. They step you through what you need to know and then you're off to the races.
My only fear is that some users may never explore the amazing features due to some being hidden away by poor UI design.
Here's some things you best NOT miss:
You can track who's on your website, where they are from, and what page they are currently visiting.
Then you can send a prompt to that user asking them if they need help.
If they accept your request they are immediately brought into a live chat with you.
That right there is an unbelievable sales tool in and of itself!
Everything else functions just as one would expect. Overall, extremely satisfied. By far the BEST chat client for Joomla.
The only downside is there is no desktop client for Mac. This will unfortunately hinder us from being able to use this component for some clients. Oh well! Everyone else will be getting it!!!

3)It's an incredibly powerful product. I haven't found a limitation as to what it can do yet.
4)The developers are really nice & helpful. I received an answer to my question within hours of posting.
5)Chronoforms is a product I could see using on almost every website I develop.
6)Absolutely fantastic! Takes 1-3hours depending on your skill level to learn and understand the system. The time it will save you is incredible. One of the best extensions I've ever used!
The new version of (3.0 Stable) does need a bit of develop on the GUI -- such as the ability to edit the form after creation, as a few others have pointed out. That being said, for being new, it's a great first step. There is NOTHING else out there that is like this product.

Rally in Salinas Demands Justice for Frank Alvarado, Killed by Salinas Police
On July 10, 2014 at around 5 AM, officers with the Salinas Police Department reportedly shot and killed Frank Alvarado at a private home in East Salinas. Frank was a member of Santa Cruz-based Sin Barras and spoke out against prison expansion at a rally in Santa Cruz on May 14. His killing was at least the fourth murder by Salinas Police Department cops since March 21, 2014. All four police killings have been of Latino men, and all have occurred in East Salinas.
At the May 14, 2014 rally in Santa Cruz, Frank spoke passionately about the need to budget state money for social programs instead of prison expansion. Frank also shared his personal experience of incarceration, and described his release from prison in July of 2013. He cautioned that building more prisons at the sacrifice of schools and parks will lead to devastating results for California. "You will have your hell if you build those prisons," he said.
Rally in Santa Cruz for California Hunger Strike Anniversary
Text via Sin Barras
Photos by Bradley Allen
On July 8, 2014, allies across the state participated in rolling hunger strikes and held local actions. In Santa Cruz, we gathered at the intersection of Water & Pacific Ave. to make these struggles against torture and criminalization visible!
July 8, 2013 is a day we remember to never forget the torture the state of California willingly inflicts on human lives. On that day, 30,000 prisoners followed the lead of their fellow prisoners locked in solitary confinement and refused to eat. By one account, close to 100 people went without eating for 59 days before agreeing to eat in exchange for serious concessions from the California Department of Corrections.

When was the word 'being' first used to refer to a human being or sentient being?
I am confused by the use of the word being to refer to a static thing. How can this word that appears to clearly be a verb gerund get turned around to be used as a thing?

Soldiers on a March: "To Pack up Her Tatters and Follow the Drum"
This hand-colored etched caricature is by British caricaturist Thomas Rowlandson (1756?-1827). Rowlandson was trained as an artist in both England and France, but seems to have seen his profession as a way to make money rather than as an art form. As a result, he produced works that would sell – including pornographic images and illustrations of poems, as well as cartoons. Rowlandson produced his works by first drawing an image, then washing it with color, etching it on copper, having it engraved by a professional engraver, and then hand ...
Tagasago Couple in the Hollow of a Pine Tree
A new and less formal style of poetry called haikai (linked verse) spread among the urbanites of Kyoto, Osaka, and Edo in 17th-century Japan. Haikai was also very much a social activity, with linked-verse parties held on regular occasions in homes or at restaurants. Such poetic gatherings helped give rise to privately commissioned woodblock prints, called surimono (printed matter), which paired images with representative verses from the circle. Both were typically intended to carry the cachet of "insider knowledge" for a cultured and well-educated audience. Because such surimono were not ...
A Fruit Boat, Jamaica
This watercolor is from an album of original drawings and watercolors done by an English lady by the name of Catherine Street, about whom further information is unavailable. The album also includes military scenes, a view of the battle of Waterloo, and pictures of Britain and Europe, painted in the early years of the 19th century and published in 1821. This 1811 picture seems intended as a caricature, given the exaggerated features of the people conveyed in the fruit boat. The watercolor is part of the Anne S.K. Brown ...

A group of pole dancers getting freaky all over Bev Hills and Hollywood! That's all. Oh, and they chartered the TMZ Tour bus to do it. BEST TOUR EVER!!
Check out TMZ on TV -- click here to see your local listings!
Will you please do a chartered drag show ?
She likes pole...
Winner winner Sheeeeeen dinner
You should have invited me TMZ I am so AWESOME on the pole XXX....xoxoxo...;) hehe
Put the monkeys back in their cages.
She looks like she's falling out the bus.
Yes I agree this is stupid and lame. I am not even attracted to these muscle legged female frogs. Please put them back in their cage and move it over to the corner of the garage. Dumbest thing I have ever seen. They should of been arrested for being so dumb.
please drop these stupid pole dancers story. I agree they are boring, lame and just stupid. Please put the weirdo's back in their cage and put it in the garage. I am not even attracted to these muscle legged female frogs...
Harvey's actions during TMZ Live and this mess lead me to believe that TMZ Tours is not doing so well.
Okay, I'll admit, I admire these gals for the prowess they have on poles. That takes a lot of skill to do what they do. BUT REALLY, TMZ? Since when do pole dancers belong on your gossip site? None of them are celebs, they are showing you what the do for a living. Why not come to my house and I'll get up and bang down a roof so you can record me roofing, HUH?
californian dumbasses
Just curious, doesn't California have seat belt laws? Whatever happened to remaining in your seat at all times and no standing past the yellow line? I'm surprised LAPD doesn't see pictures of this and give them a hefty fine.
Harvey, you should be ashamed of yourself and you should reprimanded. Not only was that dangerous to the girl, what about passerby's driving, that's a distraction. You are lucky that someone didn't cause a pileup on the street and cause injuries to innocent people all so the immature staff at TMZ can get their jollies.
Strange, you are the first to report if someone has a DUI, first to report about people fighting, about dangerous conditions at bars. You should take a look in your own backyard before finding it all high and mighty to go S.H.I.T. in someone elses.
Stay classy there TMZ....

Are You Eligible For Health Care Subsidies? Find Out Fast With This Calculator
More than two million Texans may qualify for insurance subsidies under the Affordable Care Act. But many have no idea they're eligible. We've got a calculator, so you don't have to do the math.
Starting October 1st millions of people in Texas will be able to shop and sign up for health insurance online at healthcare.gov. And while awareness of the health exchange marketplace is growing, a majority of people don't know subsidy assistance is available.
In Texas, an estimated 2.6 million people will be eligible for government tax credits to offset the cost of healthcare.
There are a few variables that go into determining eligibility, but you don't have to try and calculate everything by yourself! The Kaiser Family Foundation created a subsidy calculator to help you figure out if you're eligible.
And you can find more information on how to get coverage at HealthCare.gov or CuidadoDeSalud.gov. You can also call (800) 318-2596. Hearing impaired callers using TTY/TDD technology can dial 1-855-889-4325 for assistance.
*Remember, subsidies are only available for people purchasing coverage on their own in the exchange (not through an employer).

Non-Recourse Lawsuit Advances
100% Risk-Free Litigation Funding
Have a Class Action Lawsuit But Need Some Cash NOW? Lawsuit Funding Is Available From $500 to $500,000 in 48-72 Hours on Eligible MDL and Class Action Cases Nationwide; Fast, Affordable and Discreet.
Class Action Lawsuits
A class action lawsuit is a form of legal action where a large group of people collectively bring a claim to court. This collective form of litigation is frequently brought in response to defective drugs and harmful pharmaceuticals, workplace issues such as widespread discrimination, sexual harassment & wage, hour, overtime issues.
Some of the multi-district litigation or current class action lawsuits that TriMark Legal Funding LLC is able to provide lawsuit cash advances on include:
Class action is also frequently used for the litigation of environmental issues such as contaminated groundwater, toxic pollution and environmental disasters like the Exxon Valdez and Gulf of Mexico oil spills.
We Provide Lawsuit Funding on Class Action and Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Cases
Settlement Advances for Plaintiffs Involved in Class Action Lawsuits
TriMark Legal Funding LLC provides fast, affordable, risk-free lawsuit loans and lawsuit cash advances from $500 up to $500K, often in as little as 48 to 72 hours for plaintiffs involved in class action lawsuits, pharmaceutical or drug class actions or multi-district litigation (MDL).
TriMark Legal Funding LLC is among the most highly respected plaintiff funding firms in the US, in addition to being a leading provider of attorney financing and law firm loans.
Class Action Litigation Funding
If there's one thing that can be said about class action litigation, it's that they take a long, long, LONG time to complete. As a result, it's not at all unusual for people who are certified members of a class action law suit to find themselves in need of money to pay bills and basic living expenses or to prevent the loss of their home or vehicle.
Lawsuit advance funding is a creative, affordable and risk-free way for plaintiffs to get cash for settlements to which they are entitled but that have not been finalized yet. We can help plaintiffs get the money they need now to get their lives back on track while they wait for their legal team to complete the litigation and settlement process.
If you are currently seeking lawsuit funding for an appellate case and you have the representation of a contingent fee attorney, begin by applying online with TriMark Legal Funding LLC; let our lenders compete for your business.
Want to find out if your class action case is eligible for settlement funding? Call 1-877-932-2628 or apply online!

Webster, NY
Outdoor fun has always been a way of life in Webster. Apart from being home to many popular parks and outdoor venues, Webster maintains its status as an area hub for boating, fishing, swimming, and just about any other water activity your mind can conceive. Webster Park sits right along the lake's shore, and it garners much praise from locals for its family-friendly facilities and kid-friendly playgrounds. Not too far away, Gosnell Big Woods Preserve and Whiting Road Nature Preserve, a local favorite for mountain biking, feature miles of scenic hiking and cycling trails to keep you going for as long as your heart desires.
When you are in Webster, despite it being a quaint, laid-back community, you will never be far from roaring entertainment whenever you want it. Barely five miles away is the larger city of Rochester and that means you only have a short way to go if you want exciting city night life. When Friday night rolls around and you need something to do, gather your pals and head into the city for dinner and a movie at Winton Bar and Grill and The Little Theatre on Winton Road and East Avenue. Then dance the night away at Tilt on Central Avenue.

I had the pleasure of ending my time in Tanzania with a trip to Chumbe Island, just off the coast of Zanzibar. This tower, called the Lighthouse, is the biggest structure. But there are several wonderful open-air bungalows that you can book for a relaxing stay. The snorkeling is amazing among the island's pristine reefs.
The nightly food market in Forodhani Gardens in Zanzibar is a lively delight. At dusk, makeshift tables, propane tanks, and grills are brought out and before long, you can smell the aroma of fresh fish, meat, shrimp kebabs... There are Zanzibar pizzas, limitless choices of grilled seafood, fresh fruit salads, sugar cane juices with ginger and gyro. Grab a little something to eat, find a spot along the walls of the pier, and do a little people watching. It is a great way to spend a night in Stone Town.
Zanzibar, an archipelago off the Tanzania coast, has long attracted travelers to its capital city, Stone Town. Visitors come to cap off a safari, dance to taarab music, and snorkel among dragon moray eels—all in the historic birthplace of the Swahili language. The cotton kanga (pictured above), worn as a wrap dress, skirt, or shawl, is the principal item of clothing for East African women. Named for the dappled feathers of the guinea fowl, the kanga is not complete without a Swahili maxim printed along its border. One favorite: Kupata na kukosa kwangu, wewe kunakuhusu nini, or "Whether I succeed or fail, it's not your business." Available at the Darajani Bazaar off Darajani Street. Photo courtesy of Alvaro Leiva/Age Fotostock. This appeared in the May/June 2011 issue.
A feast of enormous octopus tentacles, colossal lobster claws, and gaping fish are laid out on table after table every night in Stone Town's Forodhani Gardens. The names and origins of less recognizable treats, smashed together in generous portions on kebab sticks, will be (very) eagerly explained to you by the vendors at each table. A kebab of tandoori lobster accompanied by fresh-pressed sugarcane juice is a quintessential treat, but if you feel iffy about sampling the seafood on the tables, there are alternatives: grilled sweet potatoes, savory bananas, and puffy coconut bread complete the Swahili suite of tastes. Negotiate your price and wait for the vendor to heat up your choice on an open fire stove in the middle of the gardens.
Sleep in one of the swanky palm-thatched bandas at the Mnemba Island Lodge, located on a private isle off Zanzibar's northeastern coast. While there, swim alongside dolphins, watch green turtles hatch at sunset, and relax on the beach as the island's Lilliputian suni antelope—which you'll swear have been cross-bred with Chihuahuas—scamper by. From $1,155 per person, season starts June 1, (888) 882-3742, andbeyond.com. Photo courtesy of Mnemba Island Lodge. This appeared in the May/June 2011 issue.
Each evening as the sun sets, Stone Town's Forodhani Park transforms into an open-air food market. Skip the fish kebabs and head straight to the vendors selling urojo, a thick mango and tamarind soup served alongside chickpea fritters, boiled potatoes, cassava flakes, chutney, and as much hot sauce as you dare. Follow it up with hand-pressed sugar cane juice with ginger and lime. Between Mizingani Street and the beach. Photo by Georgia Popplewell. This appeared in the May/June 2011 issue.
Enroll in an afternoon class at the Dhow Countries Music Academy and learn how to play taarab music—a blend of Swahili poetry and Egyptian, Indian, Indonesian, and Western sounds. The instruments played include the violin, cello, oud, qanun (similar to the zither), ney flute, and tabla drums. Or simply watch professional musicians perform. Old Customs House, Mizingani Road, 255/7774-16529 or 255/2422-34050, zanzibarmusic.org. Photo courtesy of Lebrecht Music and Arts Photo Library/Alamy. This appeared in the May/June 2011 issue.
The crumbling architecture of Stone Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the town's carved doors are one of its most recognizable features. I spent a lot of time searching for the door of Swahili merchant Tippu Tip, a notorious 19th-century slave and ivory trader who grew fabulously wealthy from his exploits in the interior of Africa. He showcased his wealth by slapping Stone Town's most elaborately carved door on the front of his mansion in the mysteriously named Suicide Alley. If you can find Suicide Alley (it's unmarked, near the Shangani Post Office in Stown Town), keep your eyes on the ground: the alternating black-and-white tiles of Tippu Tip's front stoop might be the first thing you see. The house is now inhabited by several families, so be respectful when taking pictures and exploring the area.
In Kizimkazi, a small fishing village on Zanzibar's south coast, kids play in the sand at low tide. Fishing boats, a symbol of the village's livelihood, can be seen grounded in the sand waiting for the tide to come in for the next day's catch.
236 Hurumzi, named for the street it's on, may be Zanzibar's most exquisite hotel. The rooms are named after sultans, merchants, princesses and explorers, and the historical bric-a-brac dotting the walls give it an elegant, museum-y quality. At its foundation is the English-language bookstore A Novel Idea, and across the narrow alleyway that is Hurumzi street are a motley group of shops stuffed with souvenirs and curated boutiques. 236 Hurumzi's rooftop bar and restaurant is one of the tallest structures in town; clambering up the wooden stairs, taking off your shoes at the top, and reclining (or flopping, depending on how you feel after a day of sightseeing) on the embroidered cushions is a rite of passage for some Zanzibar travelers. Even if you're not sleeping like a sultan of yore at the hotel, you can still enjoy a drink and the view.
If you travel anywhere in East Africa, you'll become acquainted with the women's garment known as kanga: a bolt of cloth worn any number of ways and featuring a Swahili proverb printed along the bottom. Zanzibari kanga are well-known all over the world. In Stone Town's House of Wonders museum, there's even a room dedicated to their sayings. Kanga with pleasant words ("Upendo ni tunda la moyo": Love is comfort to the heart) are given as gifts. Kanga with warnings ("Upelelezi ni sumu ya mapenzi": Spying is poisonous to love) can be worn as a subtle message from the wearer to another. Kanga are sold all over the island. Depending on the size and the quality of the fabric, expect to pay between 10,000 and 30,000 Tanzanian shillings (between $8-20). The kanga above was a gift to my mother and translates roughly to "Thank you, mother, for your good parenting." BE WARNED: Speak with the shopkeeper, or a translator, to make sure you know what you're getting. I bought a pretty kanga that I thought had something to do with love. It actually had more to do with promiscuity, which I eventually learned after forcing a reluctant and horrified friend to translate it for me.
If you step off the ferry in Stone Town and don't know anything about Zanzibar, the House of Wonders (or Beit al-Ajab, as it's also known) has you covered. Just a few steps away from the ferry terminal, you'll get a crash course in Swahili history. The House was built by Sultan Barghash bin Said in 1883 and now that he's gone, it houses the Museum of History & Culture of Zanzibar & the Swahili Coast. The inner courtyard is the unlikely home to a huge Swahili sailing vessel and an old car that belonged Zanzibar's first president (didn't know Zanzibar had a president, other than the Tanzanian president? Yeah, neither did I. This is why you're in the right place to learn about these things.) Despite the many cool - even, I daresay, wondrous - items in the museum, it was actually known as the House of Wonders because it was the first building in Zanzibar to boast electricity and the first building in East Africa to have an elevator. Now that those things have become commonplace and boring, you can do a scavenger hunt through the building to find other wonders. Search for David Livingstone's medicine chest (let me just say - I do not think he ventured into central Africa adequately prepared), a Christmas-themed kanga, and a centuries-old charm that reportedly contains the nose of a dog. As if that weren't enough, the gift shop is pretty well-stocked with interesting curios, too.
In search of Zanzibar's best snorkeling, I learned of Chumbe Island Coral Park (www.chumbeisland.com). Visitors to the protected coral reef are limited to those who stay on the small island. However, less expensive day trips can be arranged up to a few days in advance, provided the eco lodges are not fully booked. Visitors are invited to follow a schedule, planned according to the tides, that includes snorkeling and a nature walk. The reef, unlike much of Zanzibar, can be reached by swimming from the beach -- though small boats are also offered to ferry guests. The time formally allotted for snorkeling was too short, for a place so beautiful. However, to my delight, it was possible to forgo the nature walk for more snorkeling on my own after lunch. I'm sure I would have enjoyed the nature walk too -- but with just one day and on a snorkeling mission, I thoroughly enjoyed more time on the reef. So glad I asked! FYI, to protect the reef, no SCUBA diving is allowed and snorkeling is only permitted during hours when the tide is sufficiently high. The mobile app for afar.com accurately shows Chumbe Island off the coast of Zanzibar, not far from Stone Town. However, on the regular website, the pin in the map appears incorrectly on Stone Town, Zanzibar. Click on "view larger map" for the actual location.
Head out to Prison Island for a swim and to check out the tortoises!
I have heard the mysterious word, Zanzibar, my whole life. After Mt. Kilimanjaro and photo safari in the Serengeti, etc., my son and I kicked back a few days on the fabled Zanzibar Island. While there, we took a snorkeling trip to a small off-shore island. The water was warm, calm & clear, with a wide assortment of coral and fish life. We stayed at the Matemwe Beach Village on the northeastern side of the island. A nice spot with good service, food, pool, and accommodations. It's a must if visiting Tanzania.
According to AFAR local expert Kerry John-Davis, those seeking local flair should head to Stone Town, on the island of Zanzibar, which was once a stop on the Arabian spice route. "I love to sit on the veranda at the Africa House Hotel and drink kahawa, coffee brewed with cardamom, ginger, and chili pepper, while snacking on fresh dates." This appeared in the November/December 2014 issue. Photo by Sandi/Flickr.
According to AFAR local expert Kerry John-Davis, those seeking local flair should head to Stone Town, on the island of Zanzibar, which was once a stop on the Arabian spice route. "The town is a great base for snorkeling tours of the archipelago, but I often just browse the labyrinthine alleyways for Arabian brass lamps, Tinga Tinga paintings from local artists, and, yes, spices—I go to House of Spices for cloves and mchaichai (lemongrass tea)." This appeared in the November/December 2014 issue. Photo courtesy of the House of Spices.
Chumbe Island is just off the coast of Tanzania, near Zanzibar. I spent several days here enjoying one of the last untouched coral reefs along this part of the coast. Though pollution has been a problem elsewhere, Chumbe Island is still pristine. See it while you can!
I spent several days at Chumbe Island Coral Park. It's has one of the few remaining untouched coral reefs along this coastline. This was the sunrise that greeted me the day I was to return to Zanzibar, and from there back to Tanzania and home. What a beautiful send-off!
I was introduced to mandazi in Nairobi, Kenya, as I toured the local supermarket, looking for interesting things to bring home to try. Our local guide, Newton, told us of a delicious pastry made with coconut milk, but, alas, the market didn't have any that day. Fast forward 3 weeks, without any mandazi. We're now in Stone Town, Zanzibar, having had our first mandazi at one of the two tables at Sambusa Two Tables. Hot out of the fryer, they were incredible - puffy, crisp, sweet and savory, all at the same time. My quest was fulfilled! Or so I thought. The next morning, the "Foods of Zanzibar" tour was supposed to include a haluwa factory, but none were open that day to the public, so after tasting freshly squeezed sugar cane juice, an Indian curry "mix" bowl, date "juice", and haluwa from a stand, our guide asked us what else we might want to do. I asked to see mandazi being made, thinking we'd go to a bakery. But, no. A car ride out of Stone Town and 20 minutes later, my husband and I were sitting on Mrs. Mohammed's front porch as she patiently showed me how to make mandazi, vipopo (another fried pastry, doused in still warm cardamom syrup), and mboga (a vegetable dish made by pounding the greens in the wooden mortar, filling the mandazi for an East African calzone) from scratch, including grating a fresh coconut to make coconut milk. What an incredible experience! If you're in Zanzibar, go to Gallery Tours and ask for Juma. He'll know exactly what to do.
My guide leads me underground into a dark, damp, stone-walled holding cell which, I am told, was reserved for women and children only. The atmosphere is oppressive and stifling and my mind wanders to imagine what these poor souls must have felt, in our not-so-distant past, as they were ushered, fearful, silent, and waiting to be auctioned. This is all that remains today of an original fifteen holding cells, a grim relic of the sordid East African slave trade. As I escape the chilling chamber where so many suffocated and starved, I surface outside and spot a memorial, erected in 1998, an unapologetic, sobering monument depicting four slaves wearing original neck collars and chains, their expressions beaten and devoid of hope at becoming nothing more than a commodity. I am told that the Anglican church was built, symbolically, on the site of the slave whipping post, where a slave's value was determined by whether or not he cried out in pain. In my opinion, being accompanied by a quality official guide will really enrich your understanding of this incredible Zanzibari monument and bring it to life.
I love to watch sunsets. I find them to be lively yet soothing. When I travel, I'm always on the lookout for a good sunset spot... We flew to Zanzibar after a fantastic safari in northern Tanzania. After checking into the hotel, we took a short walk to the beach. Stone Town is a busy area and the beach was alive with families enjoying a Sunday afternoon. We found a quiet spot at a beachfront restaurant and watched teens doing acrobatics in the sand. When the sun began to set, the entire horizon lit up in intense shades of bright orange.
This place is just bursting with character, a beautiful grand building set amongst the cultural fusion of architecture, labyrinth of streets and rickety mildewed colonial buildings of central Stone Town. As you walk in through the grand front doors, every corner and wall space is crammed-full with Arabic and Swahili furniture, artifacts and antiques as its old, creaky, grand staircase leads you into comforting plush rooms with exotic Arabic-tiled bathrooms and big mahogany beds. This is definitely my choice of place to stay, the food is good, the pool is large and inviting, and it is fantastically close to all of Stone Town's shops and attractions.
A market experience like no other out there. The smells, the colours, more smells, the faces, the flies, and did I mention the smells?! Stone Town is a beautiful historic part of Zanzibar, which should be on every traveler's list. The market is small, but offers a look into a very different culture from the one we're more familiar with in the western world.
A visit to Stone Town would not be complete without a shopping trip. The town echoes with a grandiose atmosphere of a bygone era, the once perfectly decorated Arab mansions with grand balconies are chipped and peeled at the edges, and the extravagant crumbling coral stone buildings evoke a nostalgic feeling of a time when this town was saturated with wealth from the lucrative trade route. Wind your way through its labyrinth of World Heritage listed streets, past the impressive and intricately carved Zanzibar and Gujarati wooden doors, stopping for an ice cream and taking in the fusion of European, Arabic, Swahili, and Indian architecture. Then stop at one of its myriad artisan and curio shops to peruse the delicately ornamented mahogany chests, decorative lamps, brass ornaments, exotic jewelry, and tribal carvings on offer. The Memories of Zanzibar shop is a good a place to start, being centrally located behind the Africa House Hotel in Suicide Alley.
This lodge offers a private island experience with the option of experiencing the Swahili architecture, music, and culture of Stone Town (Zanzibar's capital, 20 minutes away by boat plus a 90-minute drive). High-ceilinged, thatched bandas are footsteps from a flour-fine sand beach and are romantically furnished with elaborately carved wooden beds. For those who want a change of scene, verandas and shaded beach beds offer a variety of places to sleep off all the early morning safari wake-up calls. One mile in circumference, Mnemba Island has permanent residents that include poodle-sized Suni and rabbit-sized Ader's duiker antelope, breeding doves, and enormous terrestrial coconut crabs. Sunbathers can spot dolphins from the beach year-round, and scuba divers might encounter the occasional whale shark.

A private donor has contacted Heidi Li and has made an offer to match dollar for dollar the next $5,000 the Denver Group receives in contributions so that the next $5,000 will become $10,000 (we're starting to feel a little like PBS).
We not only want our donors and others who support this effort to know it and to know that in a very short period of time ( only since last Wednesday) we are generating a lot of interest along with contributions, we want the DNC to know it too.
Update 6/30/08: We are within range of reaching the offered match!
New Update: As of yesterday ( 7/4/08) we have met that match and looking for more. Any large donor willing to make a new pledge to match donations can email us at TheDenvergroup@gmail,com with their pledge.

NBC's hit new medical drama The Night Shift continued its momentum on Tuesday, easily winning its time slot.
Tuesday's new The Night Shift managed to pull in 6.4 million total viewers and a 1.3 in the adults 18-49 age demo, on par with last week in total viewers and down a tenth in the demo. Since debuting in May, The Night Shift has become this summer's highest rated new series among adults 18-49 and in total viewership. The series will wrap up its freshman run next Tuesday, with part two of the two part finale event.
Starting off the night for NBC, an America's Got Talent rerun managed to bring in 7.9 million total viewers and a 1.7 in the demo (tying a repeat of NCIS over on CBS for the night's largest audience).
Here is how the night's other new outings faired:
ABC: Without much competition, an all new Extreme Weight Loss managed to pull in 3.5 million total viewers and a 1.0 in the demo. Tuesday's new Extreme Weight Loss was up a tenth in the demo, while even in total viewers. Closing the night for ABC, an all new Celebrity Wife Swap pulled in 3.2 million total viewers and a 1.o in the demo, tying last week's season low in both total viewers and in the demo.
