They used to be the best bakery around but to save money their cakes have less cake and more icing.

They don't make those delicious brownies either.

Try the NY State Fair chicken marinade. I'm not sure if that can be purchased elsewhere (probably can?) but I grew up with Wegmans and grilled chicken marinated in that, and still love it.

Wegmans brand hummus, turkey sausages - both very good. I also like their Toasted Oats cereal (crunchier than Cheerios, and the plain one is only 2g sugar, but the honey one tastes better ). If you like dark roast and flavored coffees, try their Toasted Almond Vanilla. It's all I buy these days.

WNYer here- there are a couple of marinades you can get at Wegman's that originate in Buffalo / Rochester / Syracuse. Buffalo's claim to fame is Chiavetta's marinade (best done on bone-in chicken with the skin). This is a very vinegary marinade. Central NYers like Salamida Spiedie Sauce (best on kabobs, lamb or chicken, yummy)-- that's the State Fair sauce. It is full of green herbs and is also quite vinegary. Both of those you can get in the general marinade / salad dressing aisle, but Spiedie sauce can also be purchased at Harris Teeter.

I've also seen pasta sauce from a local Buffalo restaurant called Chef's.

Imagine growing up with Wegman's as your idea of a "normal" grocery store. This has made every subsequent move for me very depressing (ever seen the A&P in New England? ACK!) I now know why friends' grandparents from Long Island always wanted to spend some of their Buffalo visits at Wegman's.

I came here to say Chiavetti's. Easy and delicious
