Can foie gras survive after 5,000 years?. Are we on the verge of a more enlightened era of eating?. Can both answers be yes?. Our appetites hang in the balance. Yet as absurd as battling over bloated waterfowl organs might seem, the controversy struck a serious chord even among those who had never tasted the stuff.
