Foie Gras Protesters Turn On Each Other

Yeah, not only are there two foie gras protest groups in Philadelphia, but the two separate groups are feuding with each other.

Michael Klein writes the Wynnewood home of chef Guillermo Pernot was protested last Saturday morning by Philadelphia Advocates for the Animals. The nine animal lovers chanted at eight in the morning until the cops told them they were too loud. Pernot, you see, served foie gras while working at Pif in South Philly.

Only, ah, he’s never worked at Pif. And he’s never served foie gras. Klein talked with the Pennsylvania Advocates for the Animals people and apparently the rival group, Hugs for Puppies, gave them bad intel.

Asked for comment, Christopher Semick of PAFA said it was [Nick Cooney of Hugs for Puppies] who had tried to “throw us under the bus” by force-feeding “his unfounded research” to other activists.

“What happened at Mr. Pernot’s home is an embarrassment and is going to do nothing but hinder the achievement of our goal,” Semick said by e-mail.

Soon no one in Philadelphia will be safe from the 15 or so people who are strongly against foie gras. Everyone will have to take a turn being protested in the morning due to these rival groups.

    The vegan fascist food police are at it again! 15 people deciding what everyone else has a right to eat, cook, serve etc. All this prohibitionist nonsense just makes people WANT to eat it , just to find out what the fuss is about. Didn’t work with alchohol, isn’t working with drugs, certainly won’t work with meat. Sorry to disappoint the “People for Euthanising Thousands of Animals” and their terrorist buddies at the ALF, but meat, dairy and even foi gras is here to stay. You notice they are not outside of “Hells Kitchen” (on Fox TV) for serving Beef Wellington (which last time I checked includes foi gras inside the puff pastry) because I’ll bet Chef Ramsey knows how exercise his people skills better than the chefs they are currently targeting!

    I love it when these attention whores turn on each other. Nick Cooney is a tool beyond compare.

    At least someone’s taking a stand against animal abuse. Why are people still eating dead animals?, …Still living in the stone age. Nice clogged arteries to them all.
