The annual Upper SC State Fair also boasts some of the widest variety of food found anywhere. From pizza to Polish sausage, from corn-on-the-cob to mouth-watering funnel cakes, cotton candy and steak on a stick, all the smells of these delectable foods can be found floating throughout the air, of the Upper South Carolina State Fairgrounds. While wandering through the midway and participating in the many events offered at this year's fair, be sure to grab an ice-cold beverage! Most of the food vendors will have drinks available, such as soft drinks, iced tea and of course, the long-time fair favorite, Mike's fresh-squeezed lemonade.
