NEW YORK - New York City, often viewed as the fine dining capital of America, on Wednesday became the latest U.S. locality to ban the sale of foie gras, prompting the country’s largest producer of foie gras to vow to mount a court battle to overturn it.

The nation’s largest maker of foie gras, Hudson Valley Foie Gras, located in Ferndale, New York, about 100 miles northwest of New York City, defended the practice it uses to make the luxury item.
The ban would take effect in three years, in a move meant to give farmers time to retool their businesses to focus on other products, Unger said.
