Trading cases of soda for cash, then drugs.
RIGHT!!! The hidden life of food stamp recipients. And in Chicago they raised the price of sugared drinks via a TAX method.
I buy junk food but I buy it with my own money.
I’ve said for a long time that food stamps should be limited to 4 areas
1. Fresh meats (Not deli)
2. Fresh vegetables
3. Fresh Fruit
4. Fresh dairy
No bread
No noodles
No packaged foods
No canned good
No diapers or paper goods
Or local bars getting the for free then reselling them as mixed drinks. I see it every day here in Memphis. Shopping cart stacked with 15 or so cases. They won’t even cut us a break and buy 2 liter bottles.
