Today I went to a religious program. Did not attend the program but had food they were distributing.
It is customary to give food after this religious function.
I respect food and believes it is the ultimate reality for which we strive.
What do you think about me going to this event?
As an atheist, did I do something wrong?

Not at all. I do this all the time.
But an atheist friend of mine differs with me. He does not take part in any religious festivals nor he eat anything that connects him to churches, temples and mosques.
If this organization is really practicing what Jesus taught in regards to caring for others (even those who do not practice the religion), then no. There should have been absolutely no strings attached.
If they tried to use it as a front for preaching and attempting to convert outside of displaying literature for anyone who wished to take it, then find another organization.
