YOUR newspaper rightly covers the campaign by York councillor Paul Blanchard to ban the sale of foie gras in the United Kingdom.
Richard Harris's article (Foie gras landmark, April 13) makes it all too clear why. How anyone would want to eat fatty liver anyway beats me. That can't be very good for your health, and it certainly isn't right morally to treat the poor birds so cruelly.
Let's hope Coun Blanchard manages to persuade the Minister to ban the sale of this vile stuff. I don't know which was more disgusting on your helpful photograph - pig's blood or fatty liver. Yuck!
I Foster, Coxwold, York.
