Foie gras force feed a duck until it get liver cancer, then eat the liver.. a crime on so many level

Most delicious food ever, as long you don't think too much how it is done

I tried to be open-minded and try as much local cuisine as possible when I was in France last semester... foie gras did not make the list because I can't get over that process.

I miss 90% of the rest of French cuisine though!

My god it tastes so good, though. I like to think I've only ever had goose liver foie gras because geese deserve that shit.

Seems...unethical, yeah. Damn. I want to try it, but I'm not especially proud of that. Seems to be banned in California, Australia, India, and large parts of Europe.

On one hand, I'm a little horrified by how much it hurts the animals. On the other hand, I don't know if I can honestly say this is worse than a Tyson Foods factory farm? I dunno. Whether I can make a logical case for it or not, I'm skeeved out by gavage
