No, it isn’t. At Walmart you can get a 30-serving container of oatmeal for $4, $2.93/gallon milk, an 8 lb (yes, 8lbs) bag of pinto beans for $6.88, 18 eggs for $3, 5 lbs apples for $6, $0.50/canned vegetables. But people are lazy and prefer to get quick junk
People who have worked 10 hours a day are lazy yeah. You are a jerk.
LOTS of people work 10-12 hr days, people still manage to cook. Yes, it's insane that our work hours are horrible, especially low income people but a simple meal can be put together in 20-25 mins.
Let's see you work 12 hour days, spend 3 hours on your public transit commute, come home to hungry kids, body aching, mind exhausted, for months and years on end without a real break. Are you going to cook food from scratch every single night? Or might you occasionally warm up a frozen pizza so you can actually spend some time with your babies?
Stop pretending everyone on snap is even working full time, let alone 12 hr days
Snap has work requirements. It isn't providing much. Most people on benefits work, many work multiple jobs. I'm not pretending, you are uninformed.
Yeah, it’s 80 hrs per MONTH
Right because many of the folks on SNAP have kids and I’m not sure if you are aware of the cost and often unavailable daycare. Single mothers of young kids often can’t afford to work full time.

$4.29/12 Oz
Gluten Free
Our Spicy Jalapeño Chicken Sausages employ medium-hot jalapeño peppers, rather than the typical Italian seasonings, to produce a fiery bite. Grill them alongside brightly-colored bell peppers and sliced onions, sauté and serve with scrambled eggs & toast, or throw them under the broiler with buttered Brioche Hot Dog Buns for a quick, satisfying meal on a busy weeknight.

Italian Linguine
$0.99/1 Lb
Kosher
Our Italian Linguine is made with one simple ingredient: durum wheat semolina. We don’t believe that a simple macaroni product that’s been produced for centuries should require a laundry list of added ingredients to achieve tasty results. And let’s get one thing clear: Trader Joe’s Italian Linguine is a tasty product. It can be served with just a little olive oil, but becomes especially tasty when traditionally plated with a simple pesto to coat each elliptical noodle as you spin a bit onto your fork. Other common taste-elavating options include using tomato-based sauces or a light sauce with a seafood addition - think salmon, cod, or shrimp. In as little as 7 to 8 minutes of passively boiling pasta, you can have yourself a plate of Italian Linguine noodles, toothsomely al dente, of course, and you’ll be sending your tastebuds on a flavorful flight 6,000 miles across the Atlantic to our favorite boot shaped nation!

These are the prices at Bailey's Crossroads, Falls Church, VA.
And what is rent, healthcare, gas, insurance, and all the other expenses people earning minimum wage but not being scheduled regular hours are paying?

Completely understandable, but with that logic if you are working 20 hrs a week then should be able to cook simple, nutritious home cooked meals. So far, the argument has been that people are working 2-3 jobs so they don't have time and I get that. But if we are talking of mothers working 20 hrs/week, then the previous argument of being overworked and eating processed food doesn't hold.
As a working parent, I can totally understand if someone has 10-12 hr work day and then opts for a frozen meal but the rest need to do a better job.
