Sikhs are free to eat vegetarian or non-vegetarian food. In fact some of the Sikh Gurus were non-vegetarian and avid hunters. The first Guru was offered meat by hunters on his way to Kurukshetra, for which he was lambasted by Brahmins. He wrote the famous couplet "Fools Wrangle over Flesh".
The only meat Sikhs cannot eat is Halal or Kosher (Kuttha meat).

There is no specific attitude or requirement in Sikhism regarding non-vegetarian food. Sikhism emphasizes on living a truthful and compassionate life, but it does not impose dietary restrictions. Sikhs are free to choose their diet based on personal preference and cultural influences. Some Sikhs are vegetarian, while others consume non-vegetarian food.
