The answer

Subsidized food commodities in Egypt are available to those who possess a ration card. The issuance of these cards is permitted for low- and middle-income individuals as a form of state support. It is permissible for you to acquire these commodities as long as the aforementioned conditions apply to you, even if you are capable of purchasing them without the subsidy. As for the food commodities provided by charitable organizations, they are exclusively for the needy, and it is not permissible for those who are not in need to benefit from them.
