[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At food pantries, people snap up the fresh produce when it is available. The claim that people choose to eat junk is in part false and in part true due to generational poverty and people tending to follow patterns. The programs around SNAP have been working to fix those root problems and now they are gone. You have no idea how hard it was, and how much effort and lobbying it took to get people to be able to use their snap benefits at a farm market. It wasn’t allowed at all until very recently. When it was allowed farmers invented the mobile farm truck to get the food into neighborhoods that don’t have those markets. [/quote] The food pantry I volunteer in has most of the fresh foods left behind and not taken. Meat and dairy will go- but fresh fruits and vegetables are not taken by most [/quote] Oh, which food pantry was this?[/quote]
