Okay, now apply those guidelines to vulnerable members of society who purchase groceries via EBT/food stamps. I don't think soda, ultra processed foods, or candy would count?
- blackeyeblitzar 2y agoI don’t think the healthy aspect affects eligibility food stamps. As I recall soda makes up 10% or more of all food stamp spending and the manufacturing have repeatedly successfully lobbied to keep sodas on there.
