Commentary for Kiddushin 105:3

יכול לא יחלקו מנחות כנגד זבחים שלא קמו תחתיהם בדלות אבל יחלקו מנחות כנגד עופות שהרי קמו תחתיהן בדלות ת"ל (ויקרא ז, ט) וכל נעשה במרחשת לכל בני אהרן תהיה

I might think that meal-offerings may not be apportioned as against sacrifices, seeing that they cannot replace them in poverty, yet meal-offerings may be apportioned as against fowl-offerings, since they do replace them in poverty:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' V. Lev. V, II.');"><sup>4</sup></span> therefore it is stated, and all that is dressed in the frying pan. shall all the sons of Aaron have.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Ibid. This insistence that every kind of meal-offering shall be divided among all the priests shews that under no circumstance may they be divided against anything else.');"><sup>5</sup></span>

Daf Shevui to Kiddushin

Meal-offerings can take the place of bird offerings for the poor—if the poor cannot afford a bird offering, they can bring a meal-offering. Therefore, I might have thought that they are exchangeable. They are not.
