ROANOKE, Va. (WDBJ) The contractor that maintains EBT services for Virginia's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is experiencing multi-state service problems.
This has resulted in an EBT System outage.
It is unknown when the system will be restored.
SNAP clients can call (866) 281-2448 to check on the status of the system restoration. Clients can also call 2-1-1 to learn of food resources that might be available to supplement their needs during the temporary outage. Also, clients can call the Enterprise Customer Service Center at (855) 635-4370 with any additional questions related to their benefits.

I don't eat frozen entrees because they are both costly and pretty devoid of good nutrition. Also, they tend to be very high in sodium, carbs, and fat, while low in protein and vitamins. Nope, don't touch that stuff with a very few exceptions. I buy a lot of fresh fruit and veggies, whole grains bread and pasta, poultry and fish. No candy (none!), no pastries, no chips.
I collect healthy recipes online, then email them to my Fire tablet mounted on the fridge door. I just flick my finger down the screen to scroll through recipes as I cook them. Tonight, the chicken leg quarters I just bought on sale will go into the crockpot for overnight cooking, while fish, rice, and broccoli simmer in their respective pots. Tomorrow I will bake a chocolate cake (that's my month's sum baking, as I cut it into squares and freeze it). So then, I won't have to cook until Tuesday for dinner! Even better, the dishes are all very low in sodium, fat, and chemicals---unlike fast food.
How interesting that this bureacratic call for more Antifa violence —which the media could then claim is actually a part of C-ville fallout— comes in SWING STATES.
I’m sure it’s all a huge coincidence, though.
Right.?

Many areas seem to be down today still, according to the comments.
Doesn’t seem to be newsworthy anywhere.
Wow. Well thanks for the update. Folks need to stock up and not be eating lobster on that stuff. Maybe a few got a wake-up call.
Told a guy I know who is a fan of “Burn Notice” about EFAD by that Bracken guy being on the table in one scene.
If I knew what episode, I could tell him more.......
It wasn’t too long ago that the EBT was down for 24 hours or so and there were near riots. Dunno if it not a large enough outage or too dispersed for the same thing to happen.
Figures. If the EBT goes down, riot, damage, loot and burn your own neighborhoods.
Won’t surprise me if it happens.
I used to have that picture on my website, I’ll see if I can find it.
