'Unbelievable' vegan sends another angry letter to neighbour asking them not to cook meat

An 'unbelievable' vegan has sent two angry letters to their neighbour asking them not to cook meat with their windows open or have BBQs.

The family from Australia went viral after their first pleading note that said they didn't like the smells was shared online. It has massively divided opinions with some saying no one has a right to tell others how to live and others pointing out the neighbours could have dealt with the issue better.

But things have taken a turn for the worst between the pair, as they have now seen the social media reaction and it has exasperated tensions, reports the Mirror.

In a new follow-up letter, they have now threatened to take action if their request is ignored. The first note said: "Hello neighbour, could you please shut your side window when cooking please.

"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."

In the second letter, they accuse their neighbour of taking 'the mickey' out of the family and being 'downright rude'

They wrote: "I raised my concerns of the smell of meat making my family feel sick and upset and you go and have a BBQ on Saturday night inviting lots of people, and you knew this would affect me and my family.

"Please no more BBQs and please keep that window closed when cooking otherwise I'm going to report you and go to social media too."

After sharing the note again online, people responded with mixed reactions.

One person wrote: "They are both in the wrong!! It's such a shame that this is our society now no commUNITY!! #1 If your asking someone to shut their window just shut your bloody own... #2 you can't tell another person how to live their lives or what to do, you make the changes for yourself. #3 if your neighbour has asked you something kindly that you don't agree with address it respectfully like an adult."
