Another good reason for me to move over to France as soon as possibleā¦
They are mounting up!
We have local foie gras producersā¦ the product is delicious and the āmethodā is nothing like as described in the Pressā¦
Fair enough, it should be eaten āin moderationāā¦
You get over here asap Carlā¦ 
Donāt know what all the fuss is about over foie gras, overhyped and overpriced IMO. Much prefer a decent Mousse de canard.
We all like different thingsā¦
I, too, appreciate a good Mousse de Canard ā¦
There is so much selection of delicious food and drinkā¦ almost spoiled for choiceā¦
All the more for us.
I wonder what percentage of the geese or ducks are kept in cages like those shown in the article. Can foie gras really be produced without the animals suffering - on top of the confinement?
I think I will have to keep my thoughts to myself if we move to France.
I love foie gras. It is probably my favourite food.
But I intend to try to visit a farm - when that is possible - to assure myself that itās not cruel.
I agree we must be careful not to anthropomorphise, but I believe we must also (as good stewards of our world) ensure we do not abuse them.
