While grocery shopping today, I saw that the store brand cereals were sold out but the Kellogg's products were untouched. Anecdotal, but I found it interesting.
I also noticed post and other brands lower in quantity and kelloggs stocked full
"Breitbart is so powerful that MY grocery shelves show an immediate response to their boycott of Kellogg cereals! Froot Loops, Apple Jacks, Corn Flakes, Frosted Flakes, Rice Krispies, Special K, Cocoa Krispies, Keebler, Pringles, Pop-Tarts, Kashi, Cheez-It, Eggo, Nutri-Grain.... it was all untouched by the patriotic, God-fearing, Muslim-hating masses that is Breitbart's America!"
Soft drinks, candy, cookies, snack crackers, and ice cream are food items and are therefore eligible items
steak, seafood, and bakery cakes are also food items and are therefore eligible items
other snap available items
Red Bull
Candy
Mixes for alcoholic beverages
Artificial sweetener
How does these purchases help low income people stay healthy?
Guaranteed these companies have been using lobbyists to allow these purchases.
If I were in charge, food stamps. WIC. SNAP. ETC... would only be able to be used for low sugar cereals,oatmeal, bread, pasta, milk, juice, fruits and vegetables, and average priced meat (no filet or lobster etc)

You would never be in charge of SNAP and if somehow you were non of those ideas would fly.
Oh they would fly. Getting taxpayer money? You'll eat what we say you eat. You aren't blowing tax dollars on sugary garbage and steaks
I don't think you understand what I mean. The head of SNAP doesn't have the authority to remove unhealthy food from eligible items to purchase alone. You would be put into your place by special interest just like everyone else... Change is slow for a reason...

Tell that to Obama, he needed to know a long time ago,
ah, Food stamps. The program that keeps small minded right-wingers awake at night, since forever.
Hillary Clinton. The candidate that will keep moronic left wingers awake at night till forever.
