" Starting in 2026, Americans will no longer be able to buy snack foods and soda with food stamps. This change is part of a broader initiative to encourage states to restrict foods deemed unhealthy under the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). The restrictions vary by state, with some only targeting soft drinks while others go after energy drinks, chips, and even birthday cakes. About 42 million Americans rely on the program, and the USDA says one in five SNAP dollars currently goes toward sugary drinks and snacks. The change marks the first major restriction on food stamp purchases since Congress created the program in 1964, and the debate over whether it will actually improve health is just getting started.

Jim, do you have any idea how much it cost the food industry to buy our lowlife politicians in both parties to allow food stamps to be used to buy food poisons? Welcome to America pal, where we gave the poor free food poisons for decades and then we pay their health care costs, to treat their obesity, diabetes, heart disease, etc , what a FKN country, right bro?

I guess RFK and friends wouldn't take the $$, what a concept!
