Under the self-righteous auspices of condemning animal cruelty, the NYC council voted to ban the sale of foie gras, an esoteric ingredient that is as unavailable to the majority of consumers as it is affordable or appealing.  These same champions of animal rights however have no objection to CAFO beef (steers get sick from eating grain), CAFO pork (pigs raised on concrete and have their tails docked) or the benign CAFO broilers/egg layers (who have their beaks cut and never see the light of day) which make up the rest of the land meats available for consumption once the foie gras gluttons have been gorged.
