What I love about this goat is that, in three years out of four, it gets set on fire. A colossal straw decoration erected over a wooden frame, it’s something of a cross between every Hallmark movie’s small-town Main Street Christmas tree and the lighted reindeer lawn ornaments you’d see in the US, but far less tacky and on a scale that your average suburban homeowner can only dream of.

The goat is a community holiday decoration, and a local landmark. Specifically, the Gävle christmas goat, in Sweden. The tenuous connection to meat here is that we’re going to talk about a goat first. We ran out of meats already, I guess, somehow? So we’re mixing it up this time and covering Glogg, a hideous concoction that Condit has cyberbullied us into trying. And so we present: MEATWATCH, SWEDISH HOLIDAY EDITION. But Greg gets real pissy if we don’t let him just go to town roasting something, both literally and figuratively, every thirty days or so. Look, we know what you’re thinking: This is by far one of our worst pun-based ideas. Whether it’s ranking the staple animal-based proteins on the market, or when a new type of meat drops and shakes up the game, we’re here for you, our loyal readers.

It’s a complex world out there of animal products, and Goonhammer is here to help.
