Handed out monthly, and your monthly allotment should be maximized for a married couple with 1 child. The household allotment should get smaller with each additional family member.

I get your point but why should the children of irresponsible parents have to go hungry? By all means, boxes of beans, cheese, powdered milk, rice, bread, peanut butter, and maybe dried fruit. Enough to feed everyone in the family. If they don’t like it, that’s on them.

What gets me is that Food Stamps/SNAP are allotted to feed the whole family for a month. But the kids get free breakfasts and lunches at school during the school year and everyone who looks to be under 18 gets a free meal during the summer. These extra meals are not deducted from the SNAP allotment. And now many school districts provide ‘backpacks’ of food so kids don’t go hungry over the weekends.

Many recipients have figured ways to trade their SNAP benefits for things that SNAP won’t pay for: alcohol, drugs, and smokes.

One time I was in line behind a woman buying her groceries with food stamps. I saw her afterwards in the parking lot loading up her car. It was 5 years newer than mine.
