Petition Ban the importation of foie gras due to the inhumane production methods.
The import of foie gras should be banned in Jersey due to its inhumane production. Ducks and geese are force-fed unnaturally large amounts of food, causing severe liver disease, pain, and distress.
More details
The UK banned production of foie gras in 2006, and banning its import has also been proposed. Jersey should impose an import ban to uphold ethical standards.
Fine dining in Jersey does not depend on foie gras; our top chefs can create exquisite dishes without cruelty.
A ban would enhance Jersey’s image as a responsible, compassionate destination, appealing to ethical tourists.
Prioritising animal welfare over outdated luxury strengthens the island’s reputation globally.
