A butcher from Ilkley is cooking up a campaign to create the perfect Yorkshire sausage.
David Lishman, who owns the award-winning Lishman's of Ilkley, wants to create a banger that will rival the Cumberland and Lincolnshire sausage.
David has invited around 3,000 people from across the district to vote from a short list of sausages, and is even taking his campaign to the House of Commons tomorrow, to get the opinions of six Mps.
David says the idea came to him after making Cumberland and Lincolnshire sausages.
"I thought why in this glorious county of Yorkshire have we not actually got a true, recognised Yorkshire sausage?", said David.
So what will the banger taste like? David said: "I think the Yorkshire person is quite a conservative person in terms of taste, so they want something simple, nicely seasoned, something that can be for their breakfasts."
The winning sausage will be announced at Yorkshire Day on August 1st.
