New British shop in Columbia, SC
I haven't visited it yet, but a co-worker told me about a shop selling British groceries opening in Columbia. It is called Lil's Olde English Shoppe (I know, I know) and is located at 599 Whaley Street, just off Huger. Their phone number is (803) 233-7513 and their website is www.lilsonline.com. Thought some folks here might be interested.

PS: At World Market the Cadbury choc bars are imported from Australia, and the Flakes are from Canada! So I presume it's not "the real thing."

Excellent news! Thanks for sharing. We're down in Charleston, but make the 1+ hour drive up to Columbia every now and then.
Now if there were only somewhere in South Carolina to get a decent cup of tea.......
