TL;DR
Many Hurghada hotels prohibit bringing in outside food — security checks bags at the entrance and won't let you through with takeout. This is an individual hotel policy, not a national law, so if you want food from town, eat it outside hotel grounds.
What the community said
At some hotels, security guards check guests' bags at the entrance and refuse to let in takeout food from outside restaurants or shops.

The ban on bringing in food isn't a countrywide rule — it's an internal policy set by individual hotels, so other properties may not enforce it at all.

If you want to eat food from town, it's better to eat it outside the hotel grounds rather than trying to sneak it past security at the entrance.
