Same here.

I never knew how foie gras was produced. Now that I do I'm of the opinion it should be banned as animal cruelty in every state of the union.

I like foie gras. But for those who are saying stay out of their business, just insert the word "dog" and see if your reaction changes. Of course it will.

I once had dog foie gras in southern China. It was offered by my hosts and I had to try it out of courtesy. It actually tasted okay. Still, I wasn't crazy about it and I had no idea how it was made until now.

No problem with the ban. I wonder about chefs who protest for the right to inflict intentionally inhumane treatment on animals for the purpose of creating a luxury menu item.


And the people that eat it.
