At this point in time, the cultural issues around eating goat meat in the west are probably less of a factor and it has more to do with logistics and regulation.
The supply chains around industrial factory farming for poultry, beef, and pork are very mature. They've also engaged in regulatory capture for nearly half a century. Many laws and regulations exist which would lock out new sources of meat to the average American consumer.
Goat milk and cheese, are becoming more popular, however. So there is a ready supply of livestock. So things could easily change.
