Southport Market — Attraction in Southport

Clean! Fudge is pretty good. I always buy Virginia Diner Zatarains peanuts and Scuppernong Jelly. I purchased many different jellies to try along with 5 bottles of hot sauce. I can hardly wait to use the Peach bbq sauce on a roasted pork tenderloin! There was a car show happening on this visit and some were decorated for Halloween along with a live band....Fun! The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5...two ladies working the register- one was very nice and tried to be accommodating and the other was a bit abrupt and abrasive.
