Foie gras...

Strange coincidence, I was also looking for foie gras yesterday. It seems it's prohibited now. But indeed, they sell foie gras in restaurants, weird.

Maybe it is imported?
 
One guy was exclusively selling foie, and it is gone http://foiegrasfrances.blogspot.com
 
I want to cook again profiteroles of foie gras, with a fig marmelade marinated in a sweet white wine.




From restaurant Le Sud, a cooked foie gras with vegetables al punto.

 
As an alternative buy the Pate de Foie, in a small tin, at the Chino for $4 pesos. :D
 
I agree that the process a duck/goose is submitted to is cruel, but what about the chicken factories, the poor oyster we eat alive, the cute lamb getting killed, the pork having his throat cut while hanged by the legs, etc.

I love animals & rescue dogs but the foie gras critics are a bit illogical to some extent. (like in the US where it's -mainly?- forbidden while a new law has been passed that prohibits filming cruelty towards animals = http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/07/us/taping-of-farm-cruelty-is-becoming-the-crime.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

Vegetarians don't exist btw (there's about 5 kilos of insects per ton of chocolate...)

Talking about chickens, every once in a while I get 1/4 kilo of chicken livers from our organic chicken guy and make chopped chicken liver (pate), delicious!
