Reply to comment by freeradicalx in State Orders NYC To Drop Foie Gras Sales Ban, Says Ban Violates NY Agricultural Law by Gato1980

If the city wanted to ban the production of Foie Gras inside NYC then they are more than welcome to. They didn't. They banned the sale at restaurants. The farmers that this hurts aren't city residents so they have no voice in the process. But they are state residents so Albany stepped in to protect them.

Yeah I get that, though I wasn't necessarily talking about city government. They were just the particular gov that tried to do it this time.
