will acidic foods cooked in a cast iron skillet become Fe+2 enriched because of a reaction beteen the acidic food and the skillet?

Technically, yes. Practically, only slightly. Most foods are not that acidic, most are diluted with solvent (mostly water) and oils, and most skillets have been treated and/or used enough so the surface is coated with an oxide that slows any reaction with the skillet surface.
