What 糇 means
A verse in the Book of Poetry, an early Chinese poetry collection, describes 餱糧—dry provisions—packed into bags. 糇 is an alternate, less-standard form of 餱, which names the same food.
Literary and archaic-looking; it fits a quotation or gloss better than an unexplained casual reply.
Sent alone, it may look like a typo.

1Why does 糇 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
