=========================================================


Foie gras is produced by forcing a long metal pipe down the throats of male ducks and geese and force-feeding them massive amounts of grain, resulting in their livers swelling to up to 10 times their normal size.

Two to three times a day, a worker grabs each bird, shoves a long, thick metal tube all the way down his throat, and an air pump shoots up to two pounds of corn mush into his oesophagus.

The vast amounts of feed pumped down the ducks' throats causes enormous internal pressure, and the pipe sometimes punctures the oesophagus, causing many to die from choking on the blood that fills their lungs.

Some birds literally burst, choke to death on their own vomit, or become so weak that they are unable to fend off rats from eating them alive. Other ducks die a slow, painful, and premature death by suffocation from inhalation of regurgitated feed.


=========================================================


The production of foie gras is actually illegal in the U.K. because it is cruel! It is also banned in many EU countries and is only legal in Belgium, Bulgaria, Spain, France and Hungary.

Restaurants and shops in the U.K. have chosen to ignore the stance we took by banning its production, by importing it from countries where it is still legal.

In the USA, the state of California and Chicago have banned the sale of foie gras, and it is hoped that this can be replicated here in the U.K.
