The supermarkets here in Louisiana, sell roux in jars. No kidding.

I have bought pickled pigs feet, I used to love them when I was a
preschooler. The small grocer near me, had a jar of cookies on the
counter, and the cookies were the size of my head. On the other side of
the counter, he had a jar of pickled pigs feet. I tried the cookie once,
then I went back to the pigs feet.
