Hi,
I just heard that Alderman Thomas M Tunney is trying to overturn the Fois Gras ban in Chicago!.
I strongly urge you to resist this and support the current ban!.
Chicago's ban on this barbaric food has been seen as a leading example throughout the USA and shown the world that the USA upholds the highest of food and moral standards when it comes to animal welfare!.
Overturning this ban will reverse all that good stature created over the past 12 months!.
Please, please, do what you can to stop Tunney repeal of the Fois Gras ban!.
Thank you
!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.
To be honest, if Tunney eats a lot of Fois Gras he doesn't look too good on it ;-)

How horrible this is so wrong! I agree with you!. As soon as I can I will e-mail all fifty aldermans! I am all for saving harmless animals!Www@FoodAQ@Com
I am not a vegitarian, but even I am offended by the repeal of the fois gras ban!. I think the ban needs to start with the education of the people, if people stop eating it then maybe resturants will stop selling it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
