Not a foie gras fan, but love veal. This type of food banning isn't unheard of. I don't think we can eat horse in the US, and it's consumed in France; dogs have similar laws here vs. Asia. What's the difference?

I have visited farms where geese are grown, I have never witnessed such a thing.
I think this is pretty pathetic.

What are you trying to say here? Don't get me wrong, I love foi gras, but because you have visited geese farms and have never seen such a thing, are saying that this is a lie?

I am not saying this is a lie. I am sure some producers of foie gras use this method to feed the geese. I am just saying that you cannot condemn an entire industry based on one video.
Those videos are made to shock the public. The same technique is used by pro-life activists with their pictures of dead 8-months old fetuses.
