I want to buy some foie gras for Christmas to try for the first time. Surely it can't be more unethical than eating some shit tier factory raised chicken from walmart, right?

It’s tasty, but greasy. Definitely worth a try, and your plan to buy it is a good move, as it is sooooo expensive at restaurants, and is best served simply anyway, so it’s not like it would be “difficult” to prepare.

Also, if you can get your hands on some duck liver pate, try that as well. Super delicious.

In no way is foie bad in most facilities. Their anatomy is different from ours. They have no gag reflex, and in the wild will gorge themselves if they have food available to the point where they would wreck their liver and never migrate.

Some are even fattened not just with grain, but with booze. Wouldn't you like to get fat and drunk every day before getting slaughtered? Again, they can't gag. They only resist feeding out of fear.

Foie gras is far more ethical than ever shopping at Walmart, but if you live somewhere that Walmart is a place you might sometimes go you're going to have to special order foie gras to get anything decent. I assume you're thinking of getting a pate in a jar or whatever and not buying a raw one and preparing it yourself?

I thought they catch the birds at a certain point when they're naturally at their fattest? I think it's a pretty small window and from what I see on the internet only some spaslnish dude does it this way. don't see it in stock and it's going to be multiple times more expensive... D'artagnan has 20% off all foie products right now.

Yeah. They often talk about the natural evolution of human compassion in interviews, as though it's natural and they're on the cutting edge of the inevitable future. I can understand that perspective if you restricted yourself to polite society, but if they ever glanced at fatherless they'd realize a new challenger has entered the arena.

Ok, before I buy this lobe I have a question about deveining. Everyone seems to take apart the lobes and pull the vein network out.
What if I slice a piece off I plan to cook and use kitchen tweezers to pull the veins out of the cross section? Would this be a better way to preserve the shape of the lobe?

People have this idea that gavage is horrifying because it would be highly unpleasant for humans. But ducks/geese are not humans, and have a very different physiology- namely, one that is capable of swallowing whole fish. They have no gag reflex and their throats are quite different, structurally, from ours, so the feeding tube doesn't hurt them at all. Hell I've been to a farm that raised ducks for foie, they lined up for it. Having a liver that fatty is for sure not healthy for them but guess what, they're going to get killed anyway, so that doesn't matter either.

Absolutely get some and try it by the way, it's great. Have a piece seared on top of a steak or, if you have the time and patience, make a torchon.

Didn't there used to be this mexican guy who would raise his own ducks? Like, he would fatten them up by just letting them eat to their hearts content, not to the point that they are obese and can't breathe but just fatty enough like pic related. Also wouldn't eating the liver be just generally an awful idea if we are going by >>11579084 PETA fap bait teir pic? Because Ducks are probably just being fed bread and stuff but humans, we eat garbage teir chemicals and the livers main job is to filter that...?
