I'm not sure, but it depends on the grade, which has to do with surface
blemishes, visible little strings and blood vessels, etc. I'll see if I
can find out, OK?
Foie gras is now being produced elsewhere in the US, but for a while it
was strictly a Hudson Valley thing, as a particular farmer had figured
out a way to fatten the geese (originally it was ducks in this case)
without force-feeding them, which would have violated some kind of
cruelty to animals law. I'm not sure, but I gather the process was not
patentable.
