Answer:

What are buddhas food rules?

Buddhists are allowed to eat anything that is offered to them including meat. Buddhists are not allowed to kill or have someone else kill for them, any sentient being (any non-plant life). Because of their great compassion for all living things, many Buddhists are vegetarians. One reason is because even if you didn't kill or have someone kill for you, let's say, a chicken, for your dinner, by buying the packaged chicken you are indirectly keeping someone employed to kill chickens; that is if we all stopped eating chickens no chickens would be killed.
