Danbooru response is really erratic today. I had to refresh this page several times because it would hang on saving a translation note, and now and then, I got a briefly persistent Failbooru screen. Hope it's nothing too disastrous.

I guess they're breaking an ascetic vow by eating expensive food, but justifying it with the fact that they got it for free?
I know jack about Buddhism, but my impression is that nuns aren't supposed to cause the death of a sentient being for any reason, even a bug. Encouraging the death of a sentient being by asking for meat is also forbidden. But to refuse meat given as a gift would be more rude than to eat it, as long as it doesn't lead to more killing in some way.
Apparently the vow against drunkenness is stronger, because in that case it's the alcohol itself that's forbidden, not the brewing process.
