PLEASE Don't Eat Foie Gras

There aren't too many things I won't eat. One "delicacy" I will never eat is Foie Gras. I highly encourage everyone else to do the same. Foie Gras is fatty duck liver. Basically, they have to fatten up the ducks to get their livers that way. The way they treat these ducks is HORRIBLE and CRUEL. I have a picture below of how they are force fed (there are way worse pictures, but they are too graphic). To learn more go to No Foie Gras.

The ducks are kept in tiny wire cages or packed into sheds. Pipes are repeatedly shoved down their throats, and up to 4 pounds of grain and fat are pumped into their stomachs two or three times every day. The pipes puncture many birds' throats, sometimes causing the animals to bleed to death. This inhumane procedure causes their livers to become diseased and swell to up to 10 times their normal size. Many birds become too sick to stand up.
