California foie gras ban prompts French call for California wine expulsion
Source: Just Drinks by Stuart Todd 7/4/12
"A politician in France has called on retailers and restaurants in the country to stop offering Californian wines to their customers.
The call to arms follows California's ban on the production and consumption of foie gras in the state from 1 July. A law passed in the US state in 2004 declared that the act of gavage - the force feeding of corn to geese and ducks - was harmful to the animals' well-being."
