Hurley Urged To Ban Meat From Products

British star ELIZABETH HURLEY has been urged by an animal rights group not to use meat in her upcoming food range and cookery books.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has written to the supermodel-turned-actress after learning she intends to launch her own range of low-fat organic food.

The products will include ingredients sourced from her 400-acre farm in Gloucestershire, England - including a litter of piglets.

In a letter to Hurley, PETA Vice President Bruce Friedrich writes, "Just as we hope Ms. Hurley would be hesitant to ship her dog off to slaughter, we hope she will pause to think before killing the pigs and

other animals she is caring for on her farm.

"With so many healthy and delicious vegetarian options available, there's no reason for Ms. Hurley - or anyone else - to betray her animal friends."
