Some of the imports consist of live frogs, but for the most part it's just the legs. The legs are usually cut off while the frogs are still alive. The rest of their bodies are then tossed aside and left to slowly die.

Foie gras, French for "fatty liver," is made from the grotesquely enlarged livers of male ducks and geese. The birds are kept in tiny wire cages or packed into sheds.
Pipes are repeatedly shoved down the birds' 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 cruel procedure causes the birds' livers to become diseased and swell to up to 10 times their normal size. Many birds become too sick to stand up. The birds who survive the force-feeding are killed, and their livers are sold for foie gras.
Please contact the restaurants below and ask them to remove foie gras from their menu.
