There should be food stamps, or some kind of compensation for obese people that needs to buy more healthier foods while looking at their income

SNAP should allow ALL Grandparents as Parents to participate in the SNAP program
regardless of income. The denial of FS eligibility because of the income of a grandparent is absurd.

Healthy food cost more. When they add your income they also should consider what your cost of living is.
