Once every four years, the governmental of South Carolina—first in the Confederacy, and first in the hearts of late-night comedy writers —becomes the destination of frantic amateur anthropology. Natives know to brace themselves for the outburst force of the clichés that blow into the state, along with the presidential candidates, as it prepares to keep back its primary.

South Carolinians, in the stereotypical depiction, are simple, God-fearing general public, easily swayed by conservative propaganda. In truth, the state is more complex than it’s as per usual credited with being—which is one reason why its Republican voters seem poised, if the most recent polls carry on up, to hand a victory to a moderate, Mormon, ex-Massachusetts governor.

In my conception, the best way to affirm the state’s diversity is by tasting it. South Carolina, like Gaul, is divided into three parts, demarcated not by mountains or rivers, but by recipes for pulled-pork barbecue. The eastern third of the stage makes its barbecue using a vinegar-and-pepper sauce. The upstate third favors tomato-based concoctions. In between, continual roughly from Columbia in the center of the state to Charleston on the coast, is the mustard region, where you find a yellowish sauce that is South Carolina’s distinctive innovation.
