As long as she gives them chicken or some form of protein I don't really see the problem.
My mom's motto was always, "You'll eat what I cooked or you can go to bed hungry." Not surprisingly, I'm not a picky eater now. But god, I guess it was child abuse now!
Are there things that you refuse to eat, today, out of your own choice? Why would you prepare those things for someone else to eat if you don't like them yourself?

My girlfriend is a vegetarian and has prepared meals with meat for me.
I don't like her vegetarian food but I gladly cook her meals that don't have meat.

I would be concerned if they planned to raise the child as a vegan and the child was a big fan of meat, ya know?
I think it's fine if the potential foster parent is a vegan and is willing to prepare meals with meat for the child.
Should someone be denied a chance to be a foster parent because of their diet?
This is bizarre. Why would any agency come up with such a ridiculous requirement? Is there something vital about pork that yields better children? I mean it's not like this is North carolina, pork BBQ headquarters of the world.
I don't like beets--so I'm not going to make a meal with beets in it. I don't like liver, so I'm not making liver. Not for me, not for someone else. Why SHOULD I? If it's something I know she doesn't like, but I do, I still wouldn't make it for her.
Now, if it's something I've never had, then how would I "miss" it? I don't think I've ever eaten scallops, and I know I haven't eaten oysters. I'm fine with that. I don't see a reason to start.
