lauraanne_gilman | I seem to have food on my mind a lot these days....

Just this morning, walking back with the fresh produce, I was thinking that I really needed to make the acquaintence of the local kosher butchers in the area. In New Haven I bought most of my good meats at the halal butcher or direct from the local farmers, and going back to supermarket meats was not pleasing.

I just got a reminder of why:

CNN Breaking News -- 143 million pounds of beef is being recalled by a Calif. slaughterhouse being investigated for mistreating cattle.

*sigh*

Yes, I adore foie gras, and I am willing to spend extra money to buy meat I can trust was slaughtered humanely. I'm an ethical work in progress...
