Offerings to Lord Krishna

Nityaananda!Gauranga!Hare Krishna! AGTSP and all the gurus.

In BG Krishna says that a devotee can even offer  with devotion a leaf fruit or little water, He will accept it. But this does not mean that Krishna is saying Do not offer me non-vegetarian food. Is there any verse from the shastras where Lord Krishna says explicitly that "Do not offer me non-vegetarian food".

I myself was brought up as a vegetarian but still I am asking this question, since I want to understand Krishna either through shastra, or with the help of a guru or through personal experience or all of them.

Also some devotees in a Krishna temple were offering marijuana leaves to lord Krishna by backing their action by this particular verse in Gita that I mentioned. How do  we counter them? Are there further instructions in the shastra as to what type of offerings to do. Please can you give any references. Hoping for a satisfactory answer. BTW my las post about "shastras of yavanas or meat eaters" was not posted, may be the topic is little bit sensitive and might offend other neophyte devotees like myself who are especialy coming from a Abrahamic religion. Let me know. -ys truthseeker.
