According to the list, fried bologna is the most iconic type of sandwich in South Carolina, with Mom and Pop's in Batesburg-Leesville earning a shoutout for its take on the classic Southern meal.

Here's what 24/7 Wall St. had to say:

"The epitome of Southern comfort food, the fried bologna sandwich takes a simple lunch meat, warms it up on a griddle, and serves is on white bread with a smattering of mustard or mayo and yellow cheese. Although bologna originated in Italy, German immigrants are said to have brought it to America, where it gained popularity as a cheap meat during the Depression."
