I live in deep SE Texas and I see people buying steak and lobster tails with their EBT all the time.
Just a few weeks ago 2 girls bought themselves shrimp salads with their EBT but because of all that green stuff, lettuce, there wasn’t enough “shrimpies” for them so each got themselves a 1# bag of extra large precooked shrimp.
Not the small popcorn shrimp.
Not the medium shrimp.
Not just the regular large shrimp.
They had to have the extra large shrimp.
Lunch for the 2 of them was close to $40.
Screw that welfare trash.
Taxpayers don’t need to be paying for their “shrimpies”.
I don’t think shrimp is steak and lobster. A few people probably do it but that’s not what makes steak and lobster expensive. As far as I know there are zero stats on how many EBT’s are living on steak and lobster. My guess very few or I would see it.
It is proven that most poor people eat a poor diet of fat and carbs. That is statistically proven. that’s because cheap food is fattening.
