Vegan activists threatened a restaurant in the United Kingdom over its Valentine's Day menu

A chef in the United Kingdom is backing away from including foie gras on a Valentine's Day menu after receiving death threats from vegan activists.

The chef at Kings Arms at Fleggburgh opted out of serving the decadent dish during Valentine's Day dinner this weekend after being subjected to "harassment" by activists who threatened to protest the menu, the Guardian reports. Foie gras is traditionally made by force feeding geese until their liver becomes enlarged.

Vegan activists, huh?

"Eat what I eat or I'll kill you!"

if she thinks she’s hot, she’s gravely mistaken, or she comes from a small desperate village.

Can this be served halal style?

Just say it is halal and watch these PETA ‘swipes scamper.

Good job!

Fois gras is the most disgusting food I ever tasted. Made me want to barf!

[HomerBohn]

‘Decadent dish’?

Hardly.

What should one expect of people on the same diet as Adolph Hitler?

[Sacajaweau]

You mean like wearing cabbage leaves stinks?

I make a cheap rendition of fois gras....OMG....out of this world.

Here’s a thought: have the police arrest those making the threats. Don’t change your menu.

**...After Vegan Death Threats...**

Vegans threatening to suicide themselves? What’s wrong with that? It’s a WIN!

[txnativegop]

yes your statement was one of many. LOL

[IronJack]

All life is precious, and if you don’t believe it, I’ll have to kill you.

“Eat meat or we will kill you.”

Aren’t leftests sooooo tolerable?

[PROCON]

OK, we have one FReeper on the vegan's side.

Anyone else?

So you’re OK with keeping other people from eating through the use of threats? Here’s a thought - just don’t eat it yourself.

[miserare]

Hey...I eat meat, but what comes from a goose’s liver is not meat. It’s crap!

[aomagrat]

Where’s a herd of hungry goats when you need them?

[PROCON]

Bob, Bob, these folks are more enlightened than we murdering carnivores...donchaknow.

[Dr. Ursus]

Hey Ahmed,wanna rape some lettuce!

Giving in to terrorists is never a good idea. These vegan terrorists should have been tracked down and arrested before Valentine’s Day. And then the chef should have a free foie gras sample to all guests, both to attract more customers and to discourage future would-be terrorists. There is no point in death threats if they produce the opposite effect to that intended.
