How about no.

Veganism isn't like Celiac or life threatening allergies. It's literally a personal choice. A private business is under no obligation to cater to that.

Where government involvement begins and ends in terms of private business is (imo) in mandating no discrimination against things that individuals have no choice about (Gender, sexuality, race, age, etc)

But choices are a different beast. The government has no business being involved in that.

If a Vegan restaurant would do well in that area, someone would open it. If a restaurant does well with their vegan options, they keep them, if they don't do well, they remove them. It's called supply and demand.
