A spokesperson for Wolfgang Puck confirmed that the veal used in the restaurant chain is white, milk-fed veal. Calves raised for milk-fed veal are confined in tiny crates, in which they cannot walk, turn around, or even lie down comfortably. When representatives from Farm Sanctuary worked to educate Mr. Puck and his affiliates about the plight of veal calves, they responded with misinformation, excuses, and ultimately, silence.

Despite the obvious cruelty of foie gras production, Wolfgang Puck also continues to serve foie gras in his restaurants. Birds raised for foie gras suffer terribly when they are force fed enormous quantities of food multiple times each day. Their livers swell up to ten times their normal size, so that chefs like Mr. Puck can cook their diseased organs as a "delicacy."

Wolfgang Puck has opposed legislation to protect animals from abuse and has ignored requests from citizens and humane organizations to remove items of egregious animal suffering from his menu. His refusal to address the concerns of the public is unacceptable.

Take Action!
