Foie gras production is hideously cruel and it is good to see some meat eaters also support the campaign. But for those no-vegans who will not buy animal products produced in a cruel manner, if you followed that maxim consistently you will find that with the possible exception of home killed free range meat, and some free range eggs, there are not many animal products left to eat.

Broiler chicken production (the type bought in supermarkets or takeaways like KFC) suffer agony in their legs for about 20% of their 6 weeks on earth.

Battery hens are cramped together in cages far too small for them, for 18 months.

Pigs are kept in sow stalls and farrowing crates for their whole life until they go literally insane with boredom.

Dairy cows have their calves forcibly removed form them at birth

and all animals go through slaughterhouses with such high line speeds that there is inevitably a high proportion that are cut open or scalded alive.

A double standard is better than no standard at all, but why not be consistent with your anti-cruelty stance and go vegan!
