A vegan recently sued her neighbors for having barbecues, which she said made it impossible to enjoy her own backyard without smelling the stench of cooking meat.
Cilla Carden of Perth, Western Australia, told Nine News on Mondaythat she believed her neighbors were deliberately cooking outside to annoy her.
"All I can smell is fish. I can't enjoy my backyard. I can't go out there," she said.
Carden said she also took issue with the smell of her neighbors smoking cigarettes outside and the noise of their children playing basketball.
"It's been devastating. It's been turmoil. It's been unrest. I haven't been able to sleep," she said.
She recently sued them, taking her case to both the State Administrative Tribunal and the Supreme Court of Western Australia, according to Nine News. The courts dismissed her case and denied her appeal, but Carden said she wouldn't stop fighting.
After her lawsuits made headlines earlier this week, a Facebook group organized a barbecue for next month outside Carden's home.
The event's page reads: "Don't let Cilla destroy a good old Aussie tradition, join us for a community BBQ, and help Cilla Carden GET SOME PORK ON HER FORK. BYO hotdog buns, p.s. NO VEGANS."
More than 3,000 people have expressed interest in attending the event.
