What's a great lineup of well-known food items that are made and can be found in the Southeast?

I'm omitting broad like "gumbo, boudin, cracklin, etc."

I'm looking for something that can be purchased at stores.

For example:

Coca Cola (Atlanta, GA)
Golden Flake potato chips (Birmingham, AL)
Zapp's potato chips (Gramercy, LA)
Ale 8 (Winchester, KY)
RC Cola (Columbus, GA)
Moon Pie (Chattanooga, TN)
Blenheim's ginger ale (Belnheim, SC)
Tabasco (Avery Island, LA)
Louisiana Hot Sauce (New Iberia, LA)
Buffalo Rock Ginger Ale (Birmingham, AL)
Goo Goo Clusters (Nashville, TN)
Christie Cookies (Nashville, TN)
Cavender's Greek Seasoning (Harrison, AR)
Captain Rodney's glaze (Bell Buckle, TN)


Feel free to add more.

NOLA
- Sazerac
- Southern Comfort
- DIXIE Beer
- Crystal Hot Sauce
- Camellia Red Beans
- Barq's Root Beer - now owned by Coca Cola

Bruce Foods - New Iberia, LA
- once owned Bruces Yams and a huge vegetable/canning facility. They previously owned Louisiana Hot Sauce. The canning business and LHS were both sold to out of State companies about 10 years ago, no longer made in The Berry. Bruce owns Cajun Injector marinades and shifted focus to Mexican food products and box meals under the label "Casa Fiesta"

Zapps and Golden Flake sold out to Utz which is located in PA. I'm guessing the original chip production facilities are still located in Gramercy and Birmingham respectively.
