I don’t know about South Carolina, but, I do know they grow some really fine Benne Wafers here in Savannah.

You can get them from the Byrd Cookie company.

Benne wafers are very much a South Carolina Lowcountry/coastal Georgia thing. I’d never heard of them before I moved to Columbia and only then saw them at a craft show, being sold by an excellent little bakery out of Charleston. They are AMAZING.

Reading that article’s made me hungry!

I envy you for living in Savannah.

My wife and I have always gone there about four times each year since we were dating. Whether we're just strolling along River Street, sharing a shaker of martinis at Conrad Aiken's grave in Bonaventure Cemetery, or enjoying a slice or two at Vinny Van Go-Goes, we LOVE Savannah. Too bad the Obama economy has made it hard for us to go as often as we used to.

Oh, and to get back on the subject of the thread, the Benne Wafers in Savannah are amazing.
