Ariane Daugin, head of D'Artagnan, has a few words for Tony Avella, the city council member who is trying to block foie gras production in New York: "Avella is trying to draw support for an old bill, and let's be honest, get some attention for his mayoral campaign. Suddenly, we are all talking about him...What I'd like to say to Avella is, 'go visit a good farm and then we can talk -- don't listen to those whose agenda is to convert the world to vegetarianism; get the facts.'"
