I’d like to see them do an updated Bullshit series. They really lampooned veganism at the time when I was on the fence about it, and even then I knew they weren’t giving it a fair argument.

IIRC they never did anything specifically on veganism. They have attacked various diet fads and in particular (S07E06) the organic food hype. They definitely picked on that guy who was getting in peoples' faces about raw-food-only, but to be fair that guy was also acting like a prick. In the episode on PETA, Penn repeatedly comments on "skinny vegetarians," but also consistently represents himself as a "fat [carnivore] fuck," so there's that.

It's been many years since I watched the entire show, so maybe there's a bit I don't remember. But they definitely did not do an episode devoted to it.

I enjoyed the series, and rewatched it recently but I did disagree on several episodes/topics.

I'd love to see a new series though.
