GLEN — She was a ground-breaking French chef who taught a generation of chefs to cook. She wrote numerous cookbooks and had her own cooking show on PBS. In an era when feminism was just getting off the ground, she juggled being a restaurateur with being a wife and mother to two sons.

Madeleine Kamman, who died in July in Middlebury, Vt., at the age of 87, went on to be awarded the James Beard Foundation’s Lifetime Achievement Award.

By all means lets celebrate french food that includes heavy dairy from raped female cows who never give their milk freely but are forced to and when they have THEIR babies, the infant calves are shot in the head, bludgeoned with sledge hammers, turned into veal, or confined in replacement heifer huts until they to, are impregnated and forced to serve the gluttonous want of rich dairy foods that clog the arteries to the heart, brain and penis... And by all means lets eat that "gourmet" fois gras, that requires shoving metal rods down the throats of factory farmed ducks and geese and pushing so much cowrn mash into their gullets, they get sick and suffer from fatty livers, while existing in barren warehouses with NO access to water... Oh yes, lets perpetuate torturing animals for that rich food at the root of heart disease and much more because it tastes so good... Even though animal agriculture IS the leading GHG producer, causing rapid arctic ice melt, sea level rise, weather extremes, and so many other perils impacting all life on earth...
