Foie Gras for Dessert? Yes, at Chicago's Grocery Bistro

Unless this is truly humanely raised foie gras, the fact that a former vegetarian is now serving one of the most despicably raised foods is one of the saddest things I've heard in a long time. Enjoy your dessert knowing your eating the diseased liver of a force fed bird. Disgusting and just unnecessary.

Grossly misinformed?!?!?! Where are you gettting your information? jordanlitwin is 100% correct. The only alternative production to gavage (force-feeding) is by slaughtering just prior to winter migration when the goose's liver is naturally larger. Unfortunately, the vast majority of producers do not use this method due to the lower quality of the liver. The entire US should follow suit of California's Legislature and ban the sale and production of foie gras.

I'm disgusted that a former vegetarian would even consider serving foie gras. Shame on Andre Christopher.
