Hi,
Neither is correct as written. The natural sentence would be:
“If you refuse, I’ll be offended.”
You don’t need “or” or “and” in this case — just a simple conditional sentence.

I agree with the corrections but, still, it isn't something you ought to say. It is rude to tell someone that you will be offended if they don't eat something. Speak about the good feelings you will have if the person accepts your offer instead of the bad feelings if they decline.

The natural option is:
"If you refuse, I'll be offended."
Avoid using "or" or "and" here.

Neither is natural or correct. 'And' and 'or' are used to connect two main clauses. Your sentences each have a main clause and a subordinate clause (the 'if' clause). You can't use these conjunctions here
If you refuse, I'll be offended.
Refuse, and I'll be offended - refusing will offend me
Refuse, or I'll be offended - not refusing will offend me
