I'm not in favor uneccessary cruelty to animals (or anything else for that matter), whether they are going to be eaten or not. I saw a video shot of the force feeding of geese once. They have a devise with a long hollow shaft maybe 3/4 inch in diameter. On top it has a hopper. Inside the hollow shaft is a long screw with a crank outside & above the hopper. They put the shaft down the goose's neck through its beak, fill the hopper and crank away. The screw mechanism transports the feed down into the goose. Didn't look like anything I'd want done to me.
