Disney World's compassionate decision is part of a growing trend among businesses to distance themselves from this cruel product. Just ask Target, Giant Eagle, and Harvey Nichols—three huge chains that recently caved in to pressure from PETA and its affiliates and pulled foie gras off their shelves. The production of foie gras has also already been banned in 15 nations—including the U.K., Germany, Israel, and Switzerland—as well as in the state of California.
While this is all a giant waddle in the right direction, we're not going to stop campaigning against foie gras until everyone stops forcing ducks to be organ donors. Today Disney World, tomorrow the rest of the world! For more info about this nasty stuff and to take a pledge to say "nah" to foie gras, click here.

people do not tend to mention foie gras much .. but it's still just as cruel.. tks Peta for pushing these peopel or organizations to ditch these diseased liver pates.. delicacy it is NOT.. diseased, unacceptable and cruel it IS...

That's great news for Disneyland! Hopefully Foie Gras will get banned everywhere in the world one day. I didn't know Miley Cyrus had a party there, interesting (I hate her though).

That is so cruel, and i'm glad Disney banned it. Now if only there was a way to get Disney to ban Miley Cyrus...

This us just ANOTHER crime of the nazis!
With the lake near me there are MANY wild geese and ducks around on land and in flight and when I hear the honking coming I run outside to watch and listen to the intellegent navigation while staying in line and I smile and whisper, they're FREE and think about the captive one and can't imagine anyone in their RIGHT mind could DENY something SO beautiful to remove it from its habitat and perpetrate such EVIL torture.
Neo-Con anti-christs=NAZIS
Definitely NOT a nation under God
PEACE, LOVE & TRUTH

i'm more than happy about this news - because foie gras is an inhumane torture which has to be stopped worldwide!

Outstanding! Good for Disney for making an ethical decision to protect animals from the twisted and barbaric torture of force feeding an animal into a hellish misery just to satisfy some people's appetites! THANK YOU PETA!
