Since the foie gras ban in California came into effect last summer, Pelle's gotten himself a dealer... First they take our python skin and now this! People protest fur and not leather because rich women are easier to harass than biker gangs. Foie is actually pretty sad, but it's so darn delicious that we try to understand it in terms of utilitarian good. We do only eat pasture raised eggs from Pete and Gerry's and Vital Farms in the US, or buy them with schnaps off the countryside in Austria.
(since pasture raised chickens have a diverse diet of bugs and grains they find outside, rather than just corn which is the case of many normal and cage-free eggs, the yolk is a vibrant delicious orange instead of a dull yellow, plus more nutritious for the same amount if calories! Hit three ethically raised birds with one stone!) For the longest time I thought their hit song Like a G6 was actually saying Cheese-stick... "now I'm feeling so fly like a cheese-stick, like a cheese-stick, like a cheese-stick..." (The right one is wearing aviators) I was kind of disappointed when I learned they were actually referring to a jet, but Pelle prefers blood to marinara sauce anyway. ...till next time, SF!
