Mom wants football team to have vegan BBQ after game.

A concerned parent and animal rights advocate recently made a request to a local football club to consider offering vegan options at their traditional post-game BBQ instead of the usual meat sausages. Sheena Chhabra, whose son is a member of South Melbourne Districts' Auskick, expressed her concerns about the club's post-match meat offerings and suggested they consider switching to plant-based alternatives.

In a statement, Chhabra explained her reasoning behind the request, stating that she believes serving sausages at a morning event is not necessary and that vegan options would be a more inclusive and compassionate choice. The South Melbourne club has not yet responded to her request, but it has sparked a conversation among club members and fans.

While some football clubs are open to accommodating all dietary preferences, others may simply stick to serving what the majority of their fans desire. One club member, Richard, shared his perspective on the matter, stating that they would be happy to offer vegan sausages if there is a demand for them, but they do not have to be the only option available.

Chhabra, who also runs a vegan YouTube channel, believes that the current methods of butchery are inhumane and that children would choose vegan options if they were aware of the realities of the meat industry. She also pointed out that beef sausages and bacon are classified as Group 1 carcinogens, further highlighting the health and ethical concerns associated with consuming these meats.

The debate over whether or not to offer vegan options at the football club's BBQ continues, but Chhabra's request has shed light on the growing trend towards plant-based diets and the need for more compassionate and sustainable food choices. It remains to be seen if the football club will make any changes to their post-match menu, but the conversation sparked by Chhabra's request is an important one to have.
