While I enjoy veal dishes, I abhor the method the calves are handled to produce it. Likewise, I like goose liver pate but think the force feeding is cruel. I love a hotdog at a ball game but would probably never eat another one if I visited a factory. I'd like to see the veal industry better regulated from a humane point of view and I think the Pate de Foie Gras production has already been regulated. As for hotdogs and sausage we're probably stuck with what we have. Mr. Damascus, I appreciate you're sharing the British background on the subject...Geo
