How the fuck do people eat when one meal is this price? and no, this isn’t delivery and not Canada.

Is an 8 piece tenders meal considered a meal for a single person? That sounds like a lot

That is litarelly a kids meal.

So retarded inbreds don’t like anything else?

I just eat rotisserie chickens dude. It's like $5 for a entire chicken. You're paying like $30 extra just for the fried breading. And it's because you're a fat filthy fucking beast are you not?
>>
>>22020266
>4 biscuits and 4 dipping sauces
remove those and it drops the price by like $10.
>>
>>22020385
>It's like $5 for a entire chicken.
it's $10 and it's soon to be sold out everywhere since congress is passing a bill that allows for rotisserie chickens to be bought on snap now.
>>
>>22020385
Cold case at the super walmart near me has leftover chickens for $2 or $3. It makes me feel no pity for the people with signs out front of that same walmart claiming they can't afford feed their kids.

Damn I'm surprised they couldn't already since that's actual food. Can't people get twinkies and soda with it currently?

Why couldn't they already?
It's one of the cheapest but high quality protein source. It's not candy or some slop, it's real food, and good food at a good price. It's basically what SNAP was made for.

EBT, welfare pigs eat free and make up enough of their sales that the normies that arent rich boomers that dont care how much it costs being unable to afford it doesnt even matter.

Let's see, I paid off my mortgage on my 1.6 million 52 acre property when I was 31. So I got like $6,800 a month I am no longer spending and I have my diverse portfolio that brings in a income of around 10-16% a year with funds, reits, private equity and thats pretty much hands off and handled by my money manager. I take out 220k or so as income once a year (formerly quarterly) in May and the rest keeps reinvesting.

Do people really care about a measly 30 bucks when trucks are 100k? Seriously? You care about 30 bucks when my kid will probably have to fork over 4+ million to buy 40 or 50 acres and a home in 16 years? Pocket change. Not really even thinking about 30 fucking dollars.

Do people actually sit down and think of their finances and do calculations in their head when they decide to eat petty fast food? Do they actually say, oh my... I can't afford 30 dollars now guess I can't do that. For fast food. Fast. Food.

Even the poorest person that thinks exactly what you said, is more intelligent than someone whos filthy rich and thinks nothing of it.


Ive been around and friends with some insanely rich, like, great great grandkids are set to never work, and dirt poor.

I don't see anything on the SNAP site that says you can't use SNAP to buy a rotisserie chicken as long as it's not hot.

Food stamp user here. Cold rotisserie chicken can indeed be purchased with SNAP. I often buy it at Kroger when the deli marks it down half price. Same for cold fried chicken but the markup on it makes it a bad deal, even when reduced for quick sale.
>>
>>22020659
Half of our politicians believe poor people should suffer needlessly, but flogging them every evening is politically untenable so they settle for things like "no hot foods" and "you're allowed to buy mild cheddar, but not sharp cheddar". Your tax dollars pay a legion of bureaucrats to make these rules btw.

Wth does the fucking temperature of the chicken have to do with the eligibility for SNAP??
Why?
>>

Buddy its not about logic, its about how much those lobbyists are giving me.
>>
>>22020923
Hot foods are a luxury the poor don't deserve when they're spending MY tax dollars.
>>
>>22020923
The "hot food" criterion is to prevent SNAP from being used at restaurants and other food vendors that cook it for you.
>>
>>22020935
At shoprite i ask them to steam my shrimp after they print the slip up they always do it.
>>
>>22020935
But a cold rotisserie chicken is still cooked for you. The ban is on hot foods, not prepared foods.

It's a program used by millions with hundreds of thousands of eligible items. There's bound to be some weird edge cases. I don't care that I can't get hot chicken as I'm perfectly capable of heating it up myself. If I lived in a state that doesn't allow cola to be purchased with SNAP, I wouldn't care about that either. There's thousands and thousands of items that can be purchased with it. Far more selection than I need. I'd rather not need it at all but when you're divorced and your career was handed to a third worlder, you make due with whatever resources you can access.
If you want another weird edge case: gift baskets can be purchased with SNAP as long as 51% of the value is made up of eligible food. That seems pretty stupid to me but I doubt there's tons of people buying fancy cheese gift baskets to get the cheese knife that's bundled in with it.
>>
>>22020929
What makes you think people getting food stamps never paid taxes before they ended up needing food stamps? Given the size of the deficit, it's far more likely they're getting borrowed money than getting whatever relatively tiny amount you're paying.
>>
>>22021133
it's well known that people perpetually on welfare are a lifetime net taxpayer drain, they will never contribute enough in taxes to cover what they take from the system

Only things worth getting are the $5 2pc meal or the $10 8pc bucket on tuesdays. Everything else is a massive rip-off.

Ok, let's be objective about this..
How much chicken meat can you buy with thirty dollars?
>>
>>22020892
What the fuck
>>
>>22020266
would 8 pieces of mixed fried chicken be more meat than 8 tenders? somehow $32 for a mixed eighter sounds like a reasonable deal but 8 tendies makes it sound prohibitively expensive.
>>
>>22021875
>$32 for a mixed eighter sounds like a reasonable deal
naw
>>
>>22020837
Fried chicken isn't popular in Europe in general so it's economy of scales. There's just not a huge demand for it unless you count fried Chinese chicken
>>
Eight pieces of fried chicken at Kroger costs $9. Those KFC sides aren't worth twenty something bucks.
>>22021138
>It's well known
AKA, you don't have any actual facts and are mindlessly repeating things you've heard from others. Pro-tip before you post the /pol/ image of net tax contributions by race: whites are the largest group of SNAP recipients and in this context, mindlessly posting "per capita" won't save your argument, though I doubt you have the required level of intelligence to understand why.

My mother was perpetually on welfare and the state gave me a ton of poor-person grants to go to college. Now I'm upper-middle class and pay more in taxes in any given year than I consumed from WIC or SNAP growing up. I am grateful for welfare.
>>
>>22021916
you can feed your wife and kid with that much, or eat it for two days yourself. that's a reasonable price (with added idiot tax for retards who can't cook their own dinner)
>>
>>22022381

They also used to have more flavors.

>>22022662
The Buffalo one was delicious, I’d get high and order 10 and eat them for dinner and lunch

Are you blind?
That's a meal for a family and kids.
As in it's for more than one person.

You just can't buy hot foods. That's it. It's part of why every gas station on the planet offers a microwave and takes food stamps.
