Foie gras comes from ducks or geese, specifically from the livers of ducks or geese that have been fattened by force feeding. The practice of force feeding is highly controversial, and several countries, including Germany, Italy and Poland, have banned the practice, although foie gras is still permitted to be imported and sold in those countries. In 2012, California banned both the production and sale of foie gras.
