I was of the understanding that they have a tolerance for incidental ingestion of small animals (insects, field rodents) alongside normal grazing.
They are still classified as herbivores, which excludes significant consumption of other animals.
If you don’t like the idea of in-show or in-comic Fluttershy eating meat, just pretend it’s the live action Fluttershy. And by that I obviously mean Nicolas Cage.
It started with just not wanting extra meat she bought for the carnivores to go to waste, then she used the excuse that she needed to taste it first to make sure it was alright for them to eat, now she just buys her own supply and is a strict carnivore when no prying eyes are around.
Perhaps ponies modeled tofu dogs after the sausages of another race, such as griffins.
Actually, the consumption of small animals isn’t as ‘incidental’ as believed.

Well, that’s surprising.
The first part, that is.
Actually, horses and ponies can and will eat meat should the opportunity arise.
There’s actually a theory that this is the whole reason Equestria exists.
And all of this is ignoring the fact that Pegasus was originally a ‘Horse with the brain and wings of a bird’.
And her teeth would be ill-suited to it, as well.
Humans apparently do taste like pork.
Yeah, but those don’t exist unless regular hotdogs are common.
MMM BACON IS GOOD I WONDER HOW MY FRIENDS TASTE THEN
Yeah no.
Soy hotdogs exist.
They keep pigs and I don’t think the demand for truffles is high enough for the amount they have…
They be some serious meat-eatin’ creatures, yo.
OH.
