I believe it to be cultural and economical. Beef, pork, and chicken are well-established as easy to mass-produce on a large scale, with outlets for all the "extra bits" (hot dogs, Chicken McNuggets, etc) which would cut into the producer's bottom line and make a cut of goat meat seem more expensive than the equivalent pork chop. Secondly, these aren't necessarily "acceptable" meats. Much like rabbits, which I raise for meat occasionally, eyebrows get raised and judgements get passed. Perhaps producers and consumers both find it easiest to stick with what's deemed acceptable and common, easy to homogenize and turn into processed food. Among those who know better.. goat, yum.
