For once, I agree with Bloomie. Don’t stop at sugary sodas. No chips, no pop tarts, no candy. Healthy foods only, and generics, like WIC.

I agree. No processed microwave meals. Just staples like flour, sugar, fruits and veggies, basic meats. Nothing more than $5 lb.

Not sure why someone on SNAP needs steak and lobster. Not sure why they need premade cake and icecream. If you want those things then learn how to make them.

Has the USDA changed their policy on soft drinks since 1977? In those days I worked for Lucky Stores in southern CA and you could not buy soft drinks with food stamps.

That did not stop people from buying $100 in food with food stamps and $100 in alcohol and cigarettes with cash.
