If one uses an EBT card, do they get that same cash back? offer?

Yes then they buy cigarettes, booze gas drugs etc..
In some cases this is true - but those people have 2 different accounts on the EBT card. One is for food and only food (food stamps) and the other is what we used to call welfare and is now call TANF (Temporary Assistance to Needy Families.)
EBT stands for Electronic Benefits Transfer - and all forms of "welfare" are included on the card. One can not (legally) get cash if one is only receiving food stamps, but can if they are receiving TANF.
