What's that Pate that rich people eat called?

[Yetman]

I wasn't defending the practice - which is why I said it is indefensible - I was pointing out that you don't actually know what you're talking about. .

Fair enough, its not a lifetime they suffer, its the last few months or whatever, so what, they still fucking suffer.

You'd prefer to just brand everyone as a cunt rather than enter into any sort of conversation. Why bother trying to persuade people that they really shouldn't eat foie gras on the ground of cruelty if you can just get their backs up and call them names eh?.

I've been the major converser on this thread. It wasnt calling names in the playground sense, it was an honest feeling toward people who'll contribute to the torture of animals in order for them to enjoy some fucking pate. On being challenged on that I entered into conversation.

Thing is, Yetman, I never claimed any moral high ground did I? I answered a thread honestly. I know that the means of production are fucking horrible but nevertheless, on rare occasions, I will eat it because it's delicious.

Somebody with morals as low as yours cant even see the moral high ground let alone comment on someone who you think is claiming it.

'Because its delicious'?

Oh how lovely for you! I hope you enjoy sitting on your veranda in the afternoon sun, nibbling down your canapés, foi gras and melba toast as hundreds of geese on the continent choke on metal tubes and their own vomit as their livers expand to splitting point, I’m sure they actually don’t mind it all as long as you find it ‘delicious’.

As long as stuck up bitches like you think their ability to impress her posh darling chums with her expensive pate and tigerskin coat is more important than the pain an animal goes through to provide it there will always be unnecessary suffering in the world. Sorry for having a problem with that…..

I hope this image burns itself into the back of your eyelids and honks at you every time you raise another bite of that shit to your mouth love.

Can you honestly say that you live by every single one of your no doubt very fine and high morals 100% of the time, each day and every day? If you can, then I bow to your moral superiority for you truely are super-human. Rather than sub-human like me and a few others who have had the balls to admit eating it.

When it comes to others suffering massively for my minor gain?? In every way possible.

Damn this thread, now I'm all hungry! I love foie gras. Mind you I also like KFC. When it comes to food production it seems that most animals are treating cruelly. They should be treated better.

 

[perplexis]

Could we all please learn to spell it before arguing about it?
It is:
Foie Gras
Note the e and the s.
Now carry on fighting, it's well amusing.

please note i have spelt it correctly throughout, and also explained the correct usage of the term. honestly i don't know why everyone doesn't just listen to me instead of arguing it owuld save a lot of time and stress.

 

[Yetman]

I deliberately spell it wrong in order to repeatedly insult it

Oh if only! you are a complete fantasist! What fabulous assumptions you make!

I don't have the energy for this anymore. I have to go out and buy some larks tongues from Harvey Nicks before they run out.

Oh - BTW - I will print out that picture because until you came along, I honestly had no idea whatsoever that the little darling geese suffered at all

Anything else I can say to make you even more apoplectic?

 

[perplexis]

I deliberately spell it wrong in order to repeatedly insult it

This is a good reason.
Does it apply to other things too?
So if I spell myself preplesxi is it a diss? Would there be grades of misspelling that convey extra offence?
Gosh.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

Foi gras eaters are still cunts though

Fuck it, I'm a cunt then.

It's bloody lovely.

Goes well with veal

I've given a load of geese your address, expect 'a little visit' later on

As long as you can still tell what they are meaning to say, yes.

First time doesnt work btw, you need to keep repeating the error, even when they correct you

Jesus do I have to explain everything about everything to everyone today?!?!

 

[Yetman]

I know, I'm only on the wind up with Mrs M. I love the stuff really

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Cool - I'll be able to make my own then

 

[Yetman]

Touche



you cunt

 

[Mrs Miggins]

you cunt

Grrrr

 

[votisit]

For a goose, that's probably like a continuous orgasm.

Thats sooo bad! but it made me laugh out loud!

Tis a wicked sense of humour you have there Mr Canuck

 

[kyser_soze]

You can all fuck off - foie gras is fucking delicious. Fuck the geese.

Everything I've said in this thread is now aimed at you

P.S I hope someone spikes your lasagne with leprosy, locks you in your house then runs off with your wife and leaves you to flap around the kitchen with bits of skin hanging off you, crying

 

[dolly's gal]

Yetman, were you a goose in a former life?

This is not the time, or thread, to bring that up.

Just finished reading this http://ec.europa.eu/food/fs/sc/scah/out17_en.pdf 9 year old report and it struck me that the conditions the geese were kept in for the last 2-4 weeks of their lives - in total darkness basically - was more cruel than the force feeding itself, which seems to be an extension of the birds natural habit prior to migration - albeit on a massively unhealthy scale.

Having said that the report recommends that force feeding is 'a bad thing' and causes the birds all sorts of health problems and an increased mortality rate - it goes on to suggest some guidelines for more humane production - with at least one expert calling for an outright ban.

Given that it's difficult to wade through the AR propaganda to find any credible info on this, I haven't been able to find a source for whether any of these guidelines have been introduced more recently - either that or there's no info available.

It's worth reading section 8 of that - starts at about page 60.

I'm undecided as to whether I'd eat Foie Gras, I think I'd probably try it if the opportunity arose

Hey! You into that too?! Didnt realise there was so many kinky people like me on here! Cheers mate, I hope it happens to you too!

*fingers crossed*

 

[Hocus Eye.]

From a report quoted by Fen Boy

...force feeding is 'a bad thing' and causes the birds all sorts of health problem and an increase mortality rate

I would have thought that the increased mortality rate would also be as a result of being killed so that their livers can be removed.

 

[fen_boy]

well quite.
The report was quite insistent in its recommendation that measures should be taken to reduce the mortality rate - does seem a little odd considering you'd only extend their life by about a week.

 

[bouncer_the_dog]

Man I LOVE Foie Gras... mmmm And I know where it comes from too.

 

[guinnessdrinker]

I've given a load of geese your address, expect 'a little visit' later on

can you give them my address as well? I fancy a few roast dinners.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Don't be facetious

You sure you know what that means?

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Sorry, did make that point very well did I

What I meant was some people think its ok to torture animals like that for their pleasure (be it sport or 'unnecessary' food) as they are not people, they dont have feelings.

Similar things have happened where real people have experienced the same as their torturers didnt see them as people.
)

Maybe they didn't see them as people, but the gays and jews are people.

No matter how you look at them, ducks and geese aren't people.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

We are all animals mate, humans just realised it.

We all have to eat, which is fair enough, but this sort of thing is totally unnecessary and the people who perpetuate it dont deserve to share the earth with the rest of the creatures living on it.

Thanks. The problem is, most people don't seem to get it.
