Seriously, someone's worried about wedding cakes? (Ensuing weddings likely disqualify some food stamp recipients! )

Well, then, what about ginger-bread houses?
Yes, those gingerbread houses sold by supermarkets at Christmas time can be paid for by SNAP.
So can Easter baskets, boxes of Valentine's Day candy and other holiday goodies as long as they have no toys in them.

They all have stickers that say they qualify for SNAP.
