I was so disappointed to see in the Advertiser dated January 28 that you found it newsworthy to publish an article “American conquers breakfast challenge”.

When there are so many people in this country who are having to go to foodbanks for help or are living on benefits it seems obscene that these “challenges” should take place.

Maybe Mr Blackburn of Big Dave’s Cafe feels this good publicity, I certainly do not and think such challenges are in bad taste.
