I can make a stew that can feed me lunch and dinner for three/four days with about 3.50 (or less) for stew meat... .99 cents for a bag of potatoes and .99 cents for carrots. Spices I already have on hand...When was the last time you shopped "per meal"....And didn't have staples already at home in the pantry?Apparently you dont shop for food....if you don't think people can feed themselves with $255.00 a month.
"On average, SNAP households currently receive about $255 a month. The average SNAP benefit per person is about $126 per month, which works out to about $1.40 per person per meal"
And anyway people are supposed to use Snap to supplement their grocery budget...not as their sole grocery income for the month.
Tell you the truth being a single guy I always shop per meal , if I need something quick to eat after work..
$2.50 around here at Walmart, a salad some rolls ...like $3.50 for dinner

.69 to. 92 per meal ...depending on how much I eat. It ain't that hard.
Add in a salad kit for 1.50.
Make that 1.01 to 1.20 per meal.
It's a shame we don't teach the poor to prepare and eat vegetarian. They could eat like royalty for a fraction of the cost of a meat based diet. And it would be a lot better for them.
Having an ignorant whale in the Oval Office won't help. People are sheep and, thanks to him, they will believe fast food is nutritious.
