This is one of the most disturbing articles I've read recently. Foie gras has to be truly one of the most disgusting of animal abuses. It's even being banned by meat eaters.

Wow. Well, it sounds like the author has serious psychological issues, not to mention problems with self-esteem. And I don't think too many people reading her article would believe she was ever a true vegetarian. Very sad.
