Oh boy. This is a list that South Carolina does not want to be on. According to Trip Advisor, South Carolina has the third dirtiest hotels in the country. So, how did they come to that conclusion?

According to ABC 13 WLOSNews, The Dayton House Resort in Myrtle Beach had the highest concentration of “dirty” reviews. Nearly 4,000 people reviewed that hotel and of that number, 7.55% of the reviews included the word, “dirty”. Oh dear.
The study revealed that Myrtle Beach State Park ranked as the dirtiest attraction. Ouch! There were two states that outranked the Palmetto State in uncleanliness. New Jersey and West Virginia were ranked above South Carolina as having “dirty” hotels. South Carolina has the third dirtiest hotels in the United States.

This Southern Delicacy Is South Carolina's Favorite Comfort Food
There is just something about your favorite comfort food. While I won’t binge on them constantly, I enjoy some good down-home southern home cooking from time to time. Personally for me when I think of comfort foods I think of things like mac and cheese, chicken pot pie, or a grilled cheese sandwich. But those are just a few of the endless examples. The Oxford Dictionary defines comfort foods as “food that provides consolation or a feeling of well-being, typically any with a high sugar or other carbohydrate content and associated with childhood or home cooking.”
The researchers over at E-Conolight analyzed Google search data to determine the most popular comfort foods in each state. And by popular they mean the most searched for. And there were some fantastic foods that made the list including chicken and dumplings, cheese grits, pot roast, stuffing, and chili. In fact, reading this list has made me hungry for lunch. And not the salad I was planning on having either. But what did the data show as the most popular comfort food in South Carolina? It’s a quintessential South Carolina southern delicacy.
