[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]7 of those are crap. Candy? JFC, I never got candy as a kid and my parents were loaded. [/quote]

And 13 things are regular staples. I’d be fine blocking candy and soft drinks from purchases.  I don’t have a problem with frozen novelties or snacks or cookies. [/quote]

You should care.  24% of low income kids are obese, not just overweight, but obese. Compared to 10% obesity rate of kids not low income.  It’s because they are and they are over consuming junk food, by a lot. Snap is given specifically to buy heathy foods and it’s being used to purchase junk.

This is an old article.  Obesity rate has increased from 20% to 24% since 2015

This thread is about SNAP being cut off. Can you stop? Do you think people should starve because they aren't buying food you approve? [/quote]

You think people consuming 200% of the calories their body needs are at risk for starving? [/quote]

Fat people still have to eat, and yes they can starve. What is wrong with you?[/quote]

Of course, but less food.  You think people receiving snap can buy zero food at all without snap? [/quote]

And they be even more likely to buy crap food because it is cheap! They’re not going to buy ground beef or milk like they do now.

They’re going to buy ramen packs and other cheap crap. [/quote]
