I also would have accepted Foie Nah

i suspect the lack of cruelty would rob it of much of its appeal

kurtbusiek.bsky.social•104 days ago

To be fair, it apparently doesn't taste all that good either, so maybe it deserves a bad name.

Foe Gras?

feloniousbunk.bsky.social•104 days ago

End of review should be “faux gras? More like faux pas!!”

It's freedom fries all over again

gwsimmers.bsky.social•104 days ago

Pate de foie gras?

More like PARODY foie gras, amiright!?

Of all the things to make.

Hmmmm. Aside for the obvious name silliness, I have a hard time imagining it would be any good.

Goose Liver, more like "Goose Lives"

Forged Gras honestly sounds like term you'd use for weed, if you found it was actually oregano or something.

This is why you hire a professional pun writer, people!

What a lame duck name they went with

taschoene.bsky.social•104 days ago

"Faux gras" is probably already genericised, judging from my search results.

cyaup.bsky.social•104 days ago

That's what I was thinking. Maybe that or they wanted to steer away from "faux" in favor of "forged" with it's double-meaning and connotation of being made in fire? I can just picture a session debating this. They'd probably be happy to tell us if we asked them.
