Major news for the SNAP program. 🍎🥤
Starting Jan 1, five states are implementing bans on using food stamps for soda, candy, and other "junk" foods.
Nebraska is the first to receive a USDA waiver to ban soda and energy drinks specifically. The Trump administration is signaling a push for healthier standards, though similar past efforts faced major hurdles from retailers and advocates.
Government-funded nutrition or government-mandated diet? The debate over SNAP restrictions is officially back.
