The source material clarifies the nuance behind Sai Baba and the consumption of meat. While the text describes Baba cooking in the Handi, it specifically addresses a doubt regarding meat-mixed food. Chapter 38 explains that Baba would only serve this type of food to devotees who were already habitual meat-eaters. For those who had never been associated with meat, he would not even let them touch it, ensuring he never created a new craving for them. This shows that while meat was sometimes prepared, its distribution was handled with careful consideration for the individual practices of his followers.
