The diet for a non-insulin-dependent diabetic may be somewhat different than that of the type 1 diabetic, but certainly both need a wide variety of healthful, nutritious foods.
Both type 1 and type 2 diabetics need to eat fewer simple sugars and more of the complex carbohydrates. Both need to eat low-cholesterol diets with less of the saturated fats. And both should take more of the high-fiber, unrefined foods.
