"Wegmans has a bit of a reputation as a fancy grocery store. Its house-made, ready-to-eat meals command a higher price than your standard supermarket pizza or salad. The good news is that some of the chain's prepared foods do have an upscale taste, but other dishes can make you feel like you've wasted your money. When we tried and ranked Wegmans prepared foods from best to worst, we found an underwhelming dud: the roasted turkey with gravy, whipped potatoes, and seasoned green beans."
"The one nice thing we can say is that the whipped potatoes tasted like they had butter in them, though they were not rich and creamy like a homemade Italian mash. All in all, this Wegmans flop could be likened to hospital or airline food. If the concept of a small-batch turkey dinner appeals to you, you can make a one-pan Thanksgiving dinner in one hour that will be a hundred times tastier than this sad offering."
Some prepared foods from Wegmans aim for an upscale taste but can disappoint. The roasted turkey with gravy, whipped potatoes, and seasoned green beans lacks flavor and heartiness. The green beans are under-seasoned, and the turkey is bland with chewy, tough parts. The gravy portion is small and has a jellied texture with a jarred taste. The whipped potatoes have a butter flavor but are not rich and creamy. The meal resembles hospital or airline food. The ingredient list shows turkey seasoned only with salt and sugar, and the green beans contain only olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
