The food stamps are now all done via an EBT debit card. Data gets transmitted. It would be a very simple matter to just compile the data from all purchases made on EBT cards and analyze it.

If the Dept. of Agriculture has not done this, it’s because they don’t WANT to do it.

Thank you for posting that. I was thinking of the same thing when I read this. I think I’ll Tweet that picture to the author.

Would the actual register receipt actually say “Debt Food Stamps Tender”? Looks phony to me.

The buyer converted the lobsters and steaks into cash by selling them at 50% off.

Health conscious customers will appreciate lobster’s nutritional stats. Low in fat and high in protein, lobster has less than one gram of carbohydrate per serving. USDA Nutrition data shows that, when compared to other protein sources, lobster is lowest in calories and saturated fat. (see table below) This is very important to eating healthy as saturated fat is what we worry about in terms of raising blood cholesterol. Saturated fat, not cholesterol is the primary offender in cardiovascular disease.
