Can you use food stamps at a restaurant?

[moemoneyman]

can you?

[Matador]

no u cant

[moemoneyman]

why not? restaurant food = food

[Shurt]

But by applying and receiving Food Stamps, the assumption is made that, due to financial problems, you can't afford to buy food, pay for bills etc, so they give you money. Obviously, food from the grocery store is cheaper than any restaurant, including fast-food restaurants.

What about people who are unable to make food for themselves?

There's always Ramen.

I agree what about them.

You have to boil water for ramen. Let's say people who are recieving food stamps are elderly who can't see well. What if they burn themselves?

If they're elderly, alone and can't see well, then perhaps they should be in a nursing home.

What if they got fired from their job at a fast food restaurant because they couldn't cook without burning the food?

[phantomlink]

they wont be, they will be relying on the nursing home staff

Elderly people get food stamps? I thought all they got was a check in the mail every month.

They will learn or starve, natural selection. We shouldn't help them anymore than we already do, they can make sandwiches.

Then they need to do what most of the little kids/teenage kids/young men/women do, break up the noodles in the bag, then pore the seasoning into the bag, shake, then eat.

Or they can always make a sandwitch

Yes they do. My uncle is on food stamps. Granted he is also deaf, mute and probably going blind, but they do get food stamps. He actually came to America and applied for citizenship just for the federal benefits and so that his daughters and grandchildren can get green cards.

I love my heritage. We are like the greediest race of people in this world.
