Courtney Riggs :
it's more than "candy and soda". Texas banned any product with more than 5% sugar. that means no pancakes, waffles, breads, sausages, apple juice, yogurt, fruit juices, kool-aid, bagged sugar for baking, fruit snacks, fruit cups, applesauce, canned fruit, jelly, preserves, honey...do I really need to keep going? People on snap are already struggling., leave them alone.

I pay taxes and agree. There is no reason to punish people for needing the help.

You should never be looking at someone else's plate unless it's to make sure they have enough.

Y’all love saying it’s your tax dollars and these restrictions should exist until you realize that this sets the precedent for the government to tell you what you can and cannot do with your tax returns.

It’s no one’s place to judge how benefits are used. Judging allows people to feel superior to those on benefits

There's many things that can be used for blood sugar. Fruit is a great option.

I don't believe the government should tell people what to eat. I rather have the freedom of choice! this is the USA the land of the free.✌

Everybody is worried about snap but not worried about raising the minimum wage so people don't have to use snap

Also what about things for school? Like party’s and Valentine’s Day where kids are kinda expected to bring treats? What if their parents only way to pay for that stuff is with snap?

Nightmare Before Coffee :
I don't see why "taxpayer-funded" should automatically mean "no limits." Most government programs have eligibility requirements, spending rules, and defined purposes. Discussing where those boundaries should be isn't unreasonable.

it's way worse than just no "candy or soda" here in TX you can't get anything with more than 5% sugar in it which is most of the damn store
