Nice to see the Democrat legislature taking care of such pressing issues

I’ve never eaten the stuff. Sounds interesting. Does anyone know what it actually tastes like?

Potted meat? Does foie gras come with that strange jelly that comes with the Vienna sausages?

...the chefs are proposing the strongest farming regulations in the world...

They are feeding the beast.
They should FIGHT the legislation instead of saying "Please kick THEM (the farmers) instead of US (the chefs).".

For those of us who can not afford fois gras there is braunshweiger.

I don’t do restaurants — too particular.

So, I’ve never had foie gras, but I want some now.

What sort of store carries it? I’m in a pretty ritzy suburb of philly, and I never see it in markets.

I would prefer to get my foie gras from a small farmer who cares more about hid children than his animals. A farmer who hates big government. But I’ll take any I can find as long as it helps frustrate the banners and regulators.

As a group California chefs are some of the most progressive people on the planet. They have no problem with govt telling people what to do, just not them.

Had to look this up

French for "fat liver") is a food product made of the liver of a duck or goose that has been specially fattened. This fattening is typically achieved through gavage (force-feeding corn), according to French law,[1] though outside of France it is occasionally produced using natural feeding

Yall can have it!
