The food stamp program does not place any restrictions on the foods that can be purchased. As long as it is edible, it is allowed. For example, a person on food stamps could go grocery shopping and walk out with a pack of gum, 2 candy bars, a bag of chips, and a case of soda. This raises the questions... who should have control; the one paying, or the one buying. Also, what is the purpose of the food stamp program; is it to encourage healthy eating? Or eating? Do you think that the food stamp program is serving the purpose in which it was intended? Why or Why not? What are your thoughts?
