I found this article about Fairway selling foie gras. And in a place like Brooklyn, there is a large population of people who want my Fairway to stop selling it.

Foie gras has been outlawed in California and Chicago. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that the government says it illegal for me to ingest certain foods.

They way I see it, is that if you are in for a penny, you’re in for a pound. You can’t say you are against foie gras and then go and eat caged, hormone injected, corn fed beef - because where do you draw the cruelty line?

I understand vegetarians and vegans getting upset at the sight of it, but do you have to boycott a store that sells it along with your seitan and tofu and flaxseed? That’s like them refusing to go to a restaurant that serves meat.

I’m big on organic produce, dairy and meats, but I have friends who think organical stuff is all malarkey and I don’t get all preachy on them.

These people are concerned with one supermarket chain carrying foie gras, but there are certain Asian countries that torture and murder dogs for human consumption. I don’t know how you are supposed to chose your cause: How it relates to you? Are we New Yorkers that ego-centric?
