Tim Scott Bags Groceries in Moncks Corner

U.S. Rep. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) put on a Piggly Wiggly T-shirt and bagged groceries in Moncks Corner early Friday.

It was the latest stop in the first-term congressman's "Talkin' Shop with Tim" series. For this stop, he highlighted U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations and their impact on grocery and convenience stores — particularly, new label and menu requirements.  

"It's how may calories are in your food," Scott told ABC News 4. "And, the challenge is that it's $4,000 per location, and that goes into the cost of groceries."

Previous "Talkin' Shop" stops have included pumping gas in West Ashley and waiting tables at California Dreaming. Federal regulations and their impact on small businesses have been a frequent theme for Scott.

Scott is running for his second term in November against Democrat Bobbi Rose.
