Oh well, Foie Kit!

If any of you could staunch the flow of blood from your bleeding hearts and actually spend some time around geese you would probably encourage the practice. They are nasty, brutal creatures that gang rape and brutalize each other and most other living creatures on a daily basis. Foie gras is merely God's retribution for the violent and angry way those birds chastize the rest of the animal kingdom while shitting on everything they possibly can.

At least imo. :2 cents::winkwink:

What goes around comes around. The ducks are going to have the last laugh when you keel over and die because your arteries get clogged from all the fat and cholesterol in foie gras.

Let's cage and force feed you and see how you like it.

It's no way for any animal to treated.

If it is a cruel practice (which I can't argue with) then ban the animal cruelty.... don't ban the food.

Banning a particular food opens up a can of worms (which I have actually eaten as well - I prefer the Foie Gras over the worms).

Now go put up some links to a gagging video and think about it.

:1orglaugh

what the duck?.... is that even funny? lol

Forgive Far-L, however in a way I kinda understand where he's coming from...

During my childhood years, I lived in a house nearby where Far-L now lives (true story), and there is both a lake, as well as a zoo not far away, that are home to the meanest honkin' goose colonies in the known universe.

:stoned

That video is exactly what I am talking about. Note the gang mentality of the one jumping in and the way the other one appears to be raping and ripping him up at the same time. Pernicious, vile, evil and pestilent beasts. A quick death is far too humane. The human thing to do is to torture them mercilessly then kill them and eat their livers with some fava beans and a glass of chianti.

Hahahaha yeah :1orglaugh

(and JM video selling female livers at their backdoor :1orglaugh)

fitty coupe de grace, for Foie gras:pimp

expensive shit.

I have paid to much attention to this topic please close thread...

i've never eaten the stuff, don't know anyone who has. it seems like the kind of thing people with too much money to blow on some super small portion would eat just because they can.

I love these little shit stains who get all riled up over foie gras.
I specifically search out restaurants that serve it and order it every time its on the menu.
Hi Monique, too bad I'm not coming to San Fran before the ban, we could have had a bloated goose liver party.

Well there you go, you've spoken for the proletariat. Congrats.

Or a chicken nugget.

I dont get too worked up about this factory meat product over any other.

:thumbsup

that looks disgusting :/

thanks. people eat that stuff and go to restaurants that sell it because its trendy and makes them look like bigshots. thats the only reasoning i can come up with anyways. they seems always server super smal portions at super high prices but its the name dropping thats draws the people. oh you ate at the fancy stick up your ass, oh my, you must be a someone.

I had some the other day at Chez Quis, which - I had trouble even getting in the restaurant. I had to tell them I was Abe Froman: the sausage king of Chicago, just to get a table.

wow.

I do love your insight on how the other half imagines I live.

I eat it because its delicious. Same reason I eat steak.
You'd have a point if we were talking about eating Ortolan but in this case, you're just out of your depth.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh



.

STFU, man. Tiny ANYTHING is delicious.

You've just discovered the reason to have too much money, congrats.

I couldn't get past the feathers sticking to the roof of my mouth.

I would think the beak would be the bitch of it...

I love fois gras and fois dois.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Gah! I wish you were coming to town. I'd take you to Chez Papa for the foie gras tasting menu. Next time you're in town, I'll take you there anyway - it's one of my favorite French restaurants in the city.

who mentioned you? i doubt you leave the house much.

And for everyone who keeps harping on the price of foie gras...

Naked Lunch has a foie gras and duck prosciutto sandwich on the menu for $18. The Farewell to Foie Gras dinner at Starbelly is $60 for 4 courses. The foie gras plate at Keiko is $21.

Foie gras isn't something that you have to be Warren Buffett in order to eat. Unless you're currently occupying your mom's basement, you can afford it. :2 cents:

So... foie gras is bad because of the way the animal is treated... but slaughtering cows, and making chickens live in cages is ok?

Flawless logic from these anti-foie gras people, lol.

If you don't like it, don't buy or eat it, it's your choice. But just because YOU don't like it, doesn't mean "it should be illegal and no one should do it."

Who said battery chickens was ok?

Killing any animal to eat it is fine. As long as it is free range and happy before it dies. Force feeding a goose is bad

Hope that cleared up your confusion

So why aren't we banning chickens caged and cow slaughtering?

Same thing with smoking weed, some people think it's "bad" - but that doesn't mean everyone else does. And you again, have a choice to not partake. No one is force feeding anyone foie gras or pot.

I'm not fond of the foie gras either, but if someone else is, let them have at it, it's their decision, not mine to nanny them.


This legislation (like most other ridiculous, absurd and tax dollar wasting legislation) is for some politician scumbag to say they put it through and win an election (and money).

How about the legislation here in San Francisco where you cannot purchase cigarettes in a pharmacy? Oh because that really helps prevent someone from walking across the street or buying them at the non-pharmacy store right next to it.

Total bullshit, useless legislation from some chode politician trying to win votes. "I'm here to protect your health!" I call bullshit. You are here to win votes (and money). Let me protect my own health asshole.

You think that animals can be "happy", huh?

OKay, mate, whatever you say. Good luck sourcing your organic free range meat from Amusement Park Farms.

Er...yes. Chicken in a cage vs free range chicken. Why shouldn't the free range be happy?

Killing animals to eat them is totally cool with me. Force feeding them, not so much.

Are you a chicken psychologist? You are just making a random assumption that what YOU think will make a chicken "happy" actually will and that chickens actually possess the ability to be "happy".

That's patently absurd.

We have



Nothing wrong with slaughtering cows. I fucking love steak.

Are you high? You're trying to compare force feeding battery geese with smoking weed?

No, the geese are the ones being force fed

So you really think a chicken allowed to live in thenopenair, running about, with fun chickeny things to do all day is pissed off and the ones in the battery farms are happy?

That's patently absurd.

You are ascribing human emotions to an animal with a brain the size of a thumbnail. Your criteria for animal husbandry is that animals should be happy and have fun?

If you don't see the utter childishness of that argument, I'm certainly not going to convince you of anything.
