Amazon.com: Ban the sale of foie gras on your site

The Issue

Foie gras is obtained by force-feeding a duck or goose more food than it would naturally eat in the wild. The process is both cruel and inhumane animal treatment. It swells the liver, impairs liver function, scars the esophagus, and makes it difficult to walk because of weight gain. It can also result in death.

We believe that Amazon.com should stop selling foie gras on its American website, as it has done for its UK site. Foie gras is the gross product of animal mistreatment and should not be sold on your site.
