There’s a deli in my neighborhood everyone knows. “They don’t ask questions.” As long as it’s labeled “cold combo,” SNAP works—even if it just came out of the oven. Staff and customers both know the routine. Meanwhile, rule-following stores lose business, and elderly SNAP users watch others walk out with hot meals they can’t buy. #SNAPRules #HotFoodBan #WelfareReality #UnequalAccess
