Magazine: Charleston is '4th-tastiest town in the South'

CHARLESTON (WCSC) - Charleston will be featured in the upcoming issue of Southern Living magazine as one of the "10 Tastiest Towns in the South."

After holding a vote for their readers, editors of the magazine compiled their top 10 list, which places Charleston 4th behind: Birmingham, Alabama; Baltimore, Maryland, and Lafayette, Louisiana.

Rounding out the top 10 are: Charlottesville, Virginia; Decatur, Georgia; Houston, Texas; Louisville, Kentucky; New Orleans, Lousiana, and Raleigh, North Carolina.       

Southern Living editors chose the towns based on the following criteria:
