Ever notice at the market the stuff that people buy with food stamps (that is, if they don't just cash them on the black market for 50 cents on the dollar)

I rarely see food stamps being used where I shop for groceries. But I see the junk that many very fat poor (and Wealthy) people eat. Unbelievable.

I've got this image and sound stuck in my head whenever I see big ol' fat mammas with grocery carts completely loaded down with chips, dip, Ice cream, hot dogs, and toilet paper - The image that pops in my head is a diesel semi rig. I'm imagining the fat momma driving a diesel eighteen-wheeler grocery cart (honnnnk honnnnnk :).

I did stand behind a woman a number of years ago that spent the whole time in line talking on her cell phone (in the days when they were still costly and not so ubiquitous)-- and then paid for everything with food stamps. Irritating isn't the word.
