Good news for ducks and geese!

from Forbes news: "Chef Wolfgang Puck Bans Foie Gras. Puck said Thursday he will no longer serve foie gras, the fatty liver produced by overfeeding ducks and geese. His 14 fine-dining restaurants, more than 80 fast-casual eateries and 43 catering venues will use only eggs from hens that have lived cage-free; veal from roaming calves; and lobsters that have been removed from their ocean traps quickly to avoid crowded holding tanks."

This is great news! I could not be happier that such a talented chef would buck the trend and take these huge steps to end the needless suffering of so many animals. I encourage everyone to show your support and buy his products, eat at his locations and be able to enjoy the fine foods that he creates. Many thanks to Wolfgang Puck!
