Jeffrey Steingarten Foie Gras Article
Thanks to megnut for the information that Jeffrey Steingarten's foie gras article for Men's Vogue is now online. I knew of the article when it came out, but I didn't get a copy of the magazine before it disappeared from newsstands. I did know that he adopted the same neither-evil-nor-holy stance I took a couple years back. (The neutral AVMA ruling he cites hadn't happened when I did my piece, so I was glad to see someone incorporating that report.)
The article's not a bad read, and I recommend it.
