I often go to some cities in Asia and sometimes will see someone who lives on the street. Many times they are sleeping during the day since it’s so hot and sometimes they look malnourished too. What would be the best foods I could provide them (assuming some restaurants or convenience stores are nearby) which would not spoil?

That’s interesting. Growing up, we were always told not to give money because if the person is a user or something, they’ll just use it to get their next fix, instead of buying food.
They are talking about giving to charities, not directly to the homeless. Even if they were talking about giving directly, the drug argument is very silly. If they’re hungry they’re gonna buy food first. Maybe they’ll try to buy less than they need so they can use the leftover for drugs, but that’s their prerogative.
I work with the homeless and the vast majority are just worried about meeting their basic needs and being treated like a human.
