Actually I think one would have to just buy individual prepared microwavable servings to spend it all.
That would cut down on dishwashing.
And after all dishwashing soap isn’t SNAP eligible- that has to come out of their TANF Payments like booze and cigarettes.
You CAN buy three microwave meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner for 6 bucks or less... 4 bucks if you go with house brands. No cooking mom needed here.. just get the kids out of bed and at the microwave, you’re on an 8hr break until the kids get home from school, rinse and repeat.
