Pass the Cheese...and Truffles?
I found it! Split Creek Farm home to 400 goats is located in Anderson, SC. They recently brought home more awards than any other competitor from the American Dairy Goat Association's national cheese competition. The farm's newest gold medal winner, a goat milk truffle, is made using the farm's milk and butter and is hand dipped by CocoBon Chocolatier (also in Anderson). P.S. they also make darn good fudge.
They will be holding a holiday open house on Saturday, November 24 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. EST.
I also came across this South Carolina iMix, which was great fun to listen to during the drive...

Artisan Goat Cheese and Fried Pickles
A friendly South Carolina foodie gave me the heads up that there is a goat dairy in the western part of the state that makes amazing artisan goat cheese. I'm planning my quest for this weekend.
Must mention that Southerners do like to fry things...and I had my first fried pickle recently. My gramma taught me how to make homemade sweet and dill pickles (yep, using a crock and changing the brine) and that is the way Terra makes their homemade dill pickles too. But they take it a step further, coating pickle slices in a cornmeal breading, deep frying, and served with a chipolte mayo dip. I admit it took me a couple of glasses of great wine to consent to try a basket of their "bar snack," but it was pretty good. It certainly made for interesting table conversation! Terra's is a friendly place near the Congaree River in West Columbia (100 State Street). They have terrific brick oven pizzas and a dynamic view of downtown Columbia. If you are in the area - try it!
