The very best foie gras is made by force feeding the geese so that their livers are enlarged and enriched. They use a funnel and stick to shove as much corn into the birds as they can.

Having just spent the last 4 days attending 6 different functions with enormous amounts of food and drink, I think I know how poorly those geese must feel. I’m sure if you were to look at my liver right now it would be engorged and enriched and make a lovely pate.

I think I will spend the next few days living on Berocca, cheese sandwiches and salad.
