====Others==== Local establishments calling themselves "food banks" or "soup kitchens" are often run either by Christian churches or less frequently by secular civil society groups. Other religions carry out similar hunger relief efforts, though sometimes with slightly different methods. For example, in the Sikh tradition of [[Langar (Sikhism)|Langar]], food is served to the hungry direct from Sikh temples. There are exceptions to this, for example in the UK Sikhs run some of the food banks, as well as giving out food direct from their [[Gurdwara]]s.<ref>{{cite book | last= Fieldhouse| first=Paul | title=Food, Feasts, and Faith: An Encyclopedia of Food Culture in World Religions | publisher=[[ABC-CLIO]] | year=2017 | isbn=978-1-61069-411-7 | pages=97β102 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=https://theconversation.com/from-the-temple-to-the-street-how-sikh-kitchens-are-becoming-the-new-food-banks-44611 |title=From the temple to the street: how Sikh kitchens are becoming the new food banks |publisher=[[The Conversation (website)|The Conversation]] |date=22 July 2015 |access-date=3 January 2019 |archive-date=12 July 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190712141215/https://theconversation.com/from-the-temple-to-the-street-how-sikh-kitchens-are-becoming-the-new-food-banks-44611 |url-status=live }}</ref>
