“My family are vegan — we eat only plant-based foods — and the smell of the meat you cook makes us feel sick and upset,” wrote the neighbour.
“We would appreciate your understanding — thanks. Sarah, Wayne, and kids.”

Reaction from Facebook generally sided with the meat eaters.
“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.

“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.
