We got your goat

Posted on February 2, 2020February 8, 2020 by Wegmaniacal

A thin man with a thick accent asks me if we carry goat meat. He doesn’t look hopeful. “Or lamb?” he suggests, as a compromise.

The man obviously is new to Wegmans.

Of course, we sell lamb. But we also sell goat meat, bone-in, frozen, at $9.99 for a two-pound bag. Right next to the turkey burgers.

About This Site

Upstate New Yorkers love their Wegmans, with a bond that newer customers in other parts of the East are discovering. As a customer and former employee, I share the obsession.

I launched Wegmaniacal in December 2019, to examine the cultlike following the company has developed since its founding in Rochester more than a century ago.

The site stagnated when I left Wegmans and returned to other endeavors. But with rising grocery prices, lowering environmental regulation, and pharmaceutical challenges, it’s time to resume writing here.

Much of what I have to say is positive. Nevertheless, the company is family owned and most of its operations are conducted in private. As a longtime journalist, I’ll also delve into topics Danny Wegman would prefer to keep behind closed doors.
