Helping people isn't restricted to helping people most like you. If you can help someone, help someone.
Agreed. But forcing additional money to be spent to sort out a special shelf of food is beyond what is expected for charity. My point was that they can help themselves within their community much like every other religion does for various things.
As far as general charity goes if you are needing food then it's not realistic to be picky. I have diet restrictions during lent, if I was receiving handouts at the time then of would take what I could get instead of asking for salmon over canned chicken or spam.
