Why can people buy junk food with their SNAP benefits?

Posted on by • 0 Comments

unemployed_questionQ) Why can people buy junk food with their SNAP benefits?

A) The Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 defines an eligible food as “any food or food product for home consumption and also includes seeds and plants which produce food for consumption by SNAP households.” Any change to this definition would require a new law.
