STOP SELLING HORRIBLE ANIMAL ABUSE IN THE FORM OF FOIE GRAS !

As soon as the duck gets out of the egg only the males are held for the production of foie gras. Millions of females are thus cleaned up: grinding or gassing. The males go straight to the breeding ground. To prevent the ducks from aggressively behaving in the often stressful environment, injuring themselves or themselves, most foie gras producers cut a part of their beak and their claws. Although this is contrary to the European recommendations, it's a common practice in compulsary feedingstuffs. Every year tens of thousands of ducks are packed, fed and sick for the production of foie gras. Twice a day, the birds are forced to swallow corn, pumped through a pneumatic pump, until the liver becomes diseased (liver stratosis or liver depletion). The fat master takes the animal at the neck and pushes a long metal tube to the esophagus. The amount of food that the ducks must swallow in that way corresponds to a quarter of their body weight. It's like a 80 kg man should eat 20 kg of spaghetti every day. Life expectancy in free nature: 20 years, Foie gras ducks: 3 months of torture!
