My girlfriend has EBT and she eats just fine. Vegetables are much cheaper than processed food. Maybe at one point in time it was true that processed food was cheaper and a necessity to get by on food stamps but these days it’s much cheaper to buy and eat unprocessed food like rice, bread, peanut butter, and lentils.

Those are just things I eat because I’m not a great cook. My gf cooks things like pies and casseroles.

Another thing that weirds me out is how many different kinds of junk and processed foods are EBT eligible.
