A letter from a vegan neighbour asking a resident to close their window when cooking meat has sparked fierce debate.
A bizarre neighbourhood dispute has erupted in Perth’s northern suburbs.
And it’s over the smell of food …
On behalf of their vegan family members, a Burns Beach resident has written to their neighbour asking they close their window when cooking their “sickening” meat — PerthNow reports.
The upset writer presented the letter with “PLEASE TAKE SERIOUSLY” written on the front of the envelope containing the request.
The letter submitted to Hey Perth on Facebook begins: “Hello neighbour, could you please shut your side window when cooking?
“My family are vegan — we eat only plant-based foods — and the smell of the meat you cook makes us feel sick and upset.
“We would appreciate your understanding — thanks. Sarah, Wayne, and kids.”
The letter has garnered hundreds of reactions from users on Facebook, primarily dumbfounded by what they’ve read.
“I bet her mouth starts watering when old mate mows his lawn and she gets a whiff of that deliciously fresh cut grass but!” one user wrote.
“I’m offended by the smell of the kale she always cooks,” another wrote.
Others said it was time to get their BBQs out despite the letter.
“Oh, man ... I’d be firing up the bbq and inviting the entire street,” one said.
“I would fire up the smoker and do a 12-hour brisket, with a sausage sizzle for lunch thrown in — entitled much,” said another.

And there are those like my old buddy who call themselves Outdoor Methodists, because the go out on Sunday mornings and shoot or hook their own meat.
Why don’t they go indoors and shut their own windows? Easy to solve the problem.
Dear vegan neighbor, ESAD.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Is that vegan???
Lol, good question!
There are little rubber clip things they make for swimmers to put on their noses. The vegans can wear those and avoid smelling anything, including their own nasty vegan flatulence.

Just wait until your outdoor BBQ is banned because the wafting smell of your steaks offends the Hindu neighbor next door.
How did you remember posting that? Too funny!

God he’s a nuisance. I have one friend, she’s a real piece of work, swears she has celiac disease and a life coach and a pro at neuroplasticity. In reality she has IBS and knows how to spell neuroplasticity.
Go to a restaurant with her and she orders the staff like she’s Hilary Clinton, and does her best to get a free meal..then, then she hands waiters and waitresses her life coach cards, charges $300 an hours...imagine being berated, college kids making it and some lady trying to sell her intellect after making their lives miserable for over an hour!
People like your”friends” and mine need to learn to rough it for a month or two. Don’t like the food, go hungry until they beg for a morsel and learn to say please.
