The Delicacy of Despair

Foie gras, French for "fatty liver", is made from the enlarged livers of male ducks and geese. Birds used for foie gras are kept in tiny wire cages or packed into sheds. Two or three times every day, up to 2 kilograms of grain and fat are pumped into the birds' stomachs through pipes that are shoved down their throats. This force-feeding causes the birds' livers to become diseased and swell to up to 10 times their normal size. Many birds become too sick to stand. The pipes sometimes puncture birds' throats, and the massive amount of food sometimes ruptures their stomachs and other internal organs.

Foie gras production is so cruel that it has been banned in 16 countries. In India, establishments such as the Four Seasons Kolkata, The Park Kolkata and Mumbai's Joss restaurant have written to PETA about their decision to stop serving this "delicacy of despair".

Please ask Taj and Oberoi to follow suit and immediately implement a policy against serving foie gras at all their hotels. Also, watch Hollywood actor Kate Winslet's video exposé revealing the cruelty behind foie gras production.
