Different Hindus have different beliefs about food. Whether or not they should eat meat and which food they believe can affect spirituality. Many Hindus don't eat meat at all, others eat some meat except beef because cow is a sacred animal and most Hindus will not eat any food that may have caused pain to animals. Some Hindus believe that drink alcohol, eating onions and garlic makes it harder to find spiritual truths, but they believe dairy products help with spirituality. Some Hindus choose to fast, they don't drink and eat anything when they fast. But others will drink water and no other liquid or food. It is to make their god happy or to give their food to someone who needs it more. The scriptures say that Hindus should offer food to someone who is hungry, it is a religious duty.
