Activists tell big Burrito: Have a Heart-Stop Selling Foie Gras! Voices for Animals of Western Pennsylvania 2006-02-15 1:30 AM

Activists from Voices for Animals of Western Pennsylvania protested the sale of foie gras at Eleven restaurant in the Strip District, a big Burrito restaurant, on February 14th, Valentine's Day. In June of 2004, big Burrito made a verbal commitment with Voices for Animals to stop selling foie gras at all their restaurants after VFA representatives met with big Burrito Corporate Chef, Bill Fuller at Eleven. Recently, foie gras has reappeared on the menu at some of their restaurants, including Soba, Casbah, and Eleven. Over twenty activists from Voices for Animals came to Eleven on Valentine's Day, one of the busiest days of the year for the restaurant industry, with signs proclaiming "Make Love, Not Animal Suffering" and "Have a Heart, Stop Selling Foie Gras".
