They do eat meat, its been shown with shops having burgers and stuff in stands and on the shopfronts. Remember when TR tried to eat Magikarp?

I thought they ate Pokefood that Brock made??
The people dont eat the same things as the pokemon. Thats like you eating dog food.

Official Pokemon Center of Japan answer, taken from this Excite News article:
The world of Pokemon is a world similar to ours, but it's not the same.
So their lifestyles are different, and there's no need to eat meat. Instead, they eat berries, nuts and bread that resemble pancakes.
I'm assuming the above only applies to the Pokemon games however, since the anime/manga conflicts.

Simple.

They wrote Pokemon one day. Wrote about someone eating hamburgers, then wrote more about Pokemon.

Storyboard Artist 1: Holy shiznut, I just thought of something.
Storyboard Artist 2: What?
Storyboard Artist 1: They're eating food. Meat. What about the poor Pokemon? Do they use them for food?
Storyboard Artist 2: Oh well, leave it. Probably no one will notice anyway.
Storyboard Artist 1: Okay. Cool. I'm getting paid for it anyway.

Simple enough, I think, for anyone to understand =]

I seem to recall one episode in the first season that they talked about Toraus(sp.) brugers. I think it was the one with that professor and Slobrow. Also, they all tried to eat Magikarp and thought up some pretty crazy ideas that seemed like a real dish. They also drink Miltank milk... so maybe?

Yes, the people of the Pokémon world eat the Pokémon. The fishermen do at least.
In Pokémon Diamond / Pearl / Platinum Versions, there is a story in the Canalave City Library, the Sinnoh Folk Tales.

""Sinnoh Folk Story 1"
Pick clean the bones of Pokémon
caught in the sea or stream.
Thank them for the meals they
provide, and pick their bones clean.
When the bones are as clean as can
be, set them free in the water from
which they came.
The Pokémon will return, fully
fleshed, and it begins anew. will return, fully
fleshed, and it begins anew."

Another Sinnoh Legend also suggests the eating of Pokémon...
This story is a bit longer, so I put it in a Spoiler

Spoiler:
"A young man, callow and foolish in
innocence, came to own a sword.
With it, he smote Pokémon, which gave
sustenance, with carefree abandon.
Those not taken as food, he
discarded, with no afterthought.
The following year, no Pokémon
appeared. Larders grew bare.
The young man, seeking the missing
Pokémon, journeyed afar.
Long did he search. And far and wide,
too, until one he did find.
Asked he, "Why do you hide?"
To which the Pokémon replied...
"If you bear your sword to bring
harm upon us, with claws and
fangs, we will exact a toll.
"From your kind we will take our
toll, for it must be done.
"Done it must be to guard ourselves
and for it, I apologize."
To the skies, the young man shouted
his dismay.
"In having found the sword, I have
lost so much.
"Gorged with power, I grew blind
to Pokémon being alive.
"I will never fall savage again.
This sword I denounce and forsake.
"I plead for forgiveness,
for I was but a fool."
So saying, the young man hurled the
sword to the ground, snapping it.
Seeing this, the Pokémon disappeared
to a place beyond seeing... "
