He laid the blame at President Biden’s feet.Fetterman re-shared the clip on Monday, mocking Oz’s use of the term “crudité” and saying, “In PA we call this a… veggie tray.” He also included a link to a definition of “crudité”: a French term for a tray of sliced, raw vegetables served with dips.In PA we call this a… veggie tray https://t.co/nDp0Uw27zd— John Fetterman (@JohnFetterman) August 15, 2022It didn’t stop there.In his original video, Oz said he was at “Wegners.” There is no grocery store with that name.
Some internet sleuths said the store was Redner’s, and Oz was mispronouncing it as “Regners”. However, others suggested it was the supermarket chain Wegman’s.
