Californians can buy foie gras produced out of state despite California’s ban on the delicacy, a federal appeals court ruled Friday.
The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a 2020 lower court ruling that said Californians can order foie gras from out-of-state producers and have it sent by a third-party delivery service.
Foie gras is made from the enlarged livers of force-fed ducks and geese. The Humane Society and other groups supported California’s law, arguing the process constituted cruelty to animals. The law was challenged by producers, including New York-based Hudson Valley Foie Gras, which said it lost nearly one-third of its total sales when the ban took effect.
In a 3-0 ruling, the appellate panel upheld the previous ruling but rejected efforts to overturn the entire law.
