  she needs to hand them each a bag of salad mix as they walk in the door.
  
  (provided vegan is ok with eating .0001% ground up bug parts by volume, this should solve both problems.)
  
  honestly, her H needs to tell them to bring their own food or eat what is provided.

  as inlaws, they can byo or they can offer suggestions.
  
  as a host, she can make as many accomodations as she is reasonably able.
  
  as a guest, i would byo.  as the host, i would ask for catering recommendations from them.

  I wonder how long they have had these restrictions?  If is a life-long thing then surely they are used to dealing with this and would either be avoiding meal-times with others or bringing their own. 
  
  And now I also want to know what religion requires that your food be on a different table from the food of the heathens.

  

  I just a friendly gal looking for options.

  She says Satsung, but she wasn't sure if that was the correct spelling.  She may mean Satsang but I doubt that having your food on a separate table is an actual requirement of that religion.

  My cousins are vegan and picky.  When they go to parties or events they bring their own food.  If they can figure this out by 30 surely these people can too.

  This.  I know at least one vegan that I feel like eats this way just to be a pretentious pain in the a$$.  He's also eaten meat as well without issue.
  
  Either bring their own food (potluck style), they can host their own dinners, or don't plan social outings that revolve around food. 
  
  Or depending on their conviction, get the hell over their bourgie attitude of too plenty and be a gracious guest.
