All religions, with the exception of a few allow the followers to eat meat. Judaism and Islam forbid the eating of "unclean" meat, which in part include pork, raptor/carrion birds, shellfish, hare/rabbit. In Judaism the laws forbidding certain food is called Kashrut, or keeping Kosher. In Islam the laws are called Haliel. Jainism, a religion of India, and certain sects of Buddhism may practice vegetarinism and abstain from any meat or animal derived food.

Buddhism, like Jainism is a renunciatory religion. They both stress ahimsa, or the policy of non-violence towards others, yet the Buddhist conception allows you to eat meat. In fact there are Buddhist monks who are not vegetarians even.

There are actually very less things as prohibits, commands, mandates etc in Hinduism. So in this case too Hinduism does not prohibit, but it recommends that meat eating could be avoided for spiritual benefits and kindness towards fellow creatures.

Most religions permit eating meat. It might be easier to list those that are vegetarian. Jainism, some varieties of Buddhism and some varieties of Hinduism are vegetarian. Beyond that there are some religions like mainstream Hinduism, Orthodox Judaism, and Islam that restrict the consumption of certain meat products but not all meat.

There was one notable person who chose a vegetarian diet in the Holy Bible, but being a vegetarian is a life choice, not a religious choice.
