Cruel Chef Pushes Foie Gras!

Oregon activists have successfully persuaded many local restaurants to remove cruel foie gras from their menus. Now, Pascal Sauton, chef at Portland’s Carafe, is retaliating by asking all restaurants to put this inhumane item back on the menu. Calling the activists “extremists” and “militants,” Sauton claims that the well-being of animals is not an important concern!

Please contact chef Sauton, and educate him about the suffering these birds endure. Let him know that animals feel pain too, and there is no excuse for serving items of unnecessary cruelty!

On Tuesday, April 29, the Pew Commission on Industrial Farm Animal Production released the results of a two and a half year study, confirming what farm animal advocates have long known: that confining farm animals inside tiny crates and cages, subjecting them to routine mutilations, force feeding them, and pumping them full of antibiotics is an untenable situation. The Pew Commission provides additional, compelling and irrefutable data to prohibit these abuses. Read more.
