Because there was only vegan cake at Malachi’s birthday party, none of his friends came.
His mother then turned to a Facebook group for vegans.
Twelve children have now agreed to celebrate a party with Malachi.
Malachi had a sad fifth birthday. The boy from Scarborough in the southeast of Queensland, Australia, was abandoned by his school friends following he revealed that his mother would bake a cake without animal ingredients.
Malachi’s mother, 27-year-old Angel Craine, had been planning his Pokémon party for over a month. She was horrified when no one showed up at the party: “I heard the other children’s nasty comments every day following school. They made fun of it that Malachi is vegan“The mother told Daily Mail Australia.
“He loves animals more than anything”
The 27-year-old switched to a completely vegan diet last year, but says she didn’t expect her two sons, aged four and two, to follow suit. The Australian assures that she did not force her children to do this. Both Malachi and his brother are big animal lovers and would regularly visit farms to see the animals up close.
During one of these visits, Malachi realized where one of his came from Favorite food, chicken nuggets, comes from. He then vowed to give up eating animals forever. “He’s a really passionate vegan,” says his mother, adding: “He loves animals more than anything. When I explained to him that the nuggets contain chicken and that burgers are made from cow meat, he was shocked and has never wanted to touch an animal product once more since then.
Children wanted “cow in the cake”
The mother said her son had been looking forward to his Pokémon party for weeks and was overjoyed to celebrate the special day with his friends. “I think he was happy to tell his friends that there was a vegan chocolate cake,” said the 27-year-old. According to her statement, the children demanded that “a cow be in his cake.”
At first, the disappointed mother hoped that the children would overcome the “problem” with the vegan cake, but then she realized that her son would have a lonely birthday ahead of him. The registration deadline expired without anyone reporting.
Party will be rescheduled
In order to give Malachi a worthy birthday party, his mother finally agreed a Facebook group suitable for vegans. There she asked parents if they wanted to bring their children to the party. “Next weekend the time has come and twelve children have agreed,” she says. She now hopes that Malachi will find some new friends with similar interests.
