Vegetarianism is not an obligation in Hinduism, only a preference based on the principle of non-violence and respect for the soul living in all living beings. In fact, I just read that only about 30% of Hindus are vegetarian. However, in the form of Hinduism I practice, non-veg is the standard for festivals at least, and every Tuesday and Saturday, as well as fasting days (such as Ekadashi, Navratri, Maha Shiv Ratri, etc.). Most vegetarian Hindus eat a diet which they call “pure vegetarian,” which means they eat vegetable products and dairy products but no flesh or eggs. Even those who eat meat often eat it only once a week or only occasionally and definitely not on a fast day.
I think the difference between Indians and Nepalese is simply cultural. Also, though I am not sure, because of the climate and soil in Nepal, growing vegetarian staples such as wheat, rice, pulses, etc., is close to impossible so their diet depends more on meat.
Being a vegetarian is actually a luxury. You need a lot of fertile soil, proper rain, etc. in order to grow large amounts of nutritious vegetable staples, or have shops that sell them if you are living in urban areas, etc. I would venture to say that even in India in the villages where they don’t have large masses of land to grow rice, pulses, etc., and no access to shops (or even money to buy with), they depend more on animal products such as chickens, eggs, milk, etc. It’s all a matter of availability.
Since we are talking about Nepalis, I have to put in a good word for them. There are a number of them that go to the same temple as I in NYC, and they are extremely warm and friendly, and they seem to be extremely devout. And even the pujas on Navratri are crowded with Nepalis...
