Hi all,
I live in Korea where flaked corn/maize aren’t a thing. I have been reading that I can use grits, which are more expensive here, but still affordable. But, looking at the side of the box (Quaker Quick grits) there are a lot of extra things in there, like niacin, iron, and folic acid.
I don’t find any mention of these in other posts, so I assume it’s not a problem? Or am I looking at the wrong type of grits?
 
The grits are "enriched" with vitamins and extra nutrients like many home cereal grocery products. It's not a big deal for using them in brewing. Quick grits are partially pre-cooked so they have also been gelantinized which lets you just mix them into the mash with no worries.
