Kate Winslet is one of my favorite actors—top three for sure. So, when I found out she was narrating our exposé to show the world what ducks and geese endure for foie gras, I literally jumped for joy.
Major UK retailer Selfridges recently pledged to stop selling the so called "delicacy" forever. Foie gras, for those of you who don't know, (which I'm pretty sure is most of you, because foie gras is disgusting and eaten mostly by older, snooty people!) is made from the engorged livers of ducks and geese. Eat someone's fatty liver? … I don't think so.
Tubes are shoved down the birds' throats several times a day to force-feed them grain and fat, which often punctures their throats, resulting in tissue damage and internal bleeding. Watch as Kate describes the horrors behind foie gras.
