Magret refers to the breast of a Barbary duck which has been force fed fois gras.

Every days a school day!

Force fed to make foie gras, surely - otherwise the whole thing's circular and pointless?

AthelstaneTheUnreadyFucker · 06/11/2013 20:34

are they force-fed champagne and french toast, too?

VivaLeBeaver · 06/11/2013 20:34

Ah, mistake well spotted there! Yes, force fed to make fois gras. It would be a waste to feed fois gras to a duck!

Though I suppose it could be a novel way of getting a two bird roast.

Fois gras inside fois gras???

I want to be a duck

Grin I keep missing the trolls, were they really that awful?
ClayDavis · 06/11/2013 20:37

If I were a duck I'd be massively offended if you tried to force feed me foie gras. It's not very tactful is it?

bsc · 06/11/2013 20:37

same school as last night??

VivaLeBeaver · 06/11/2013 20:37

I think ducks are vegetarian so they probably would be pissed off.

OP posts:
ClayDavis · 06/11/2013 20:38

That's the one bsc.

VivaLeBeaver · 06/11/2013 20:38

Bsc, yes.

AthelstaneTheUnreadyFucker · 06/11/2013 20:38

is champagne not vegetablearianist? Shock

IorekByrnisonsArmour · 06/11/2013 20:39

Every thread I come back to has gone pfftt Confused

What happened this time??

VivaLeBeaver · 06/11/2013 20:40

I should think champagne is vegetarian is, fatty liver......not so much.

OP posts:
Huitre · 06/11/2013 20:40

Surely ducks love to eat slugs and stuff. Like chickens. I'm sure they're not vegetarian, given half a chance.

ClayDavis · 06/11/2013 20:41

I think if you're force feeding it, it doesn't get much of a choice whether it wants to be vegetarian or not.

Huitre · 06/11/2013 20:41

The trolls were initially awful but have dwindled into slightly dull, DownWith.
