As Amazon allows a platform for foie-gras to be sold on their UK website it seems that they are condoning this cruelty. As a major retailer they have the power to take an ethical stand and prevent suffering. Contact them today and politely ask them to dump foie-gras.

	Dear Amazon As a customer of yours I was shocked to discover that you are selling foie-gras and providing a platform for third-party sellers to offer it on your UK website. Foie-gras is the grossly enlarged liver of a duck or goose and is essentially a disease, marketed as a delicacy. I was shocked to learn from Viva! that around 38-40 million birds raised for this 'gourmet' cruelty each year in France; they are force-fed enormous quantities of food through a long metal pipe, two or three times a day. This process of deliberate and painful overfeeding continues for up to a month by which time the birds' livers have swelled to ten times their normal size. Every year, around a million ducks die during this period of force-feeding. Foie-gras is not produced in Britain, as the Government has made it clear that its production would contravene existing animal welfare regulations. No supermarket in Britain sells foie-gras, as they have taken an ethical choice not to do so. I am aware that you already ban the sale of dolphin and whale meat on Amazon.co.uk. I strongly urge you to take an ethical policy regarding foie-gras and do likewise. If you do not I will have to consider taking my online custom elsewhere. Yours faithfully
