Every year millions of ducks and geese suffer a cruel and painful fate to become the delicacy known as foie gras. Confined in tiny cages, these birds are force-fed several times a day in a process called gavage in which a metal tube is violently rammed into their throats, forcing them to swallow a thick corn porridge. This brutal feeding method often causes painful injuries in the bird's throat and inner organs, and as a result, the animals' livers swell to 10 times their normal weight. This diseased fatty organ is sold worldwide as foie gras.

How much suffering can you swallow? Stand with us and say no to foie gras!
