seen posts of a #SNAPchallenge featuring lentils, broccoli, rice, etc, but it's fucking entitled to assume you have the time, kitchen, and tools to cook that. If you're working multiple jobs, picking your kids up at 7 when the daycare closes, and just surviving, you're not cooking FUCKING LENTILS.

speaking of relatable @repshontelbrown.bsky.social participated in #SNAPChallenge by buying a week’s worth of groceries for $42, to better understand what people on SNAP are dealing with. It is an absolutely brilliant video that hopefully resonates with a wide audience.

The average SNAP benefit is $6 a day, so I just tried to buy a week’s worth of groceries for $42.

Meanwhile, Trump and Republicans want to cut SNAP to give tax cuts to billionaires.

Make it make sense.

#SNAPChallenge25 Day 4 and I have a cold. It's been really hard not to reach for the foods I normally would to help. But it's important to recognize how quickly our health can be impacted when we don't have access to high-quality nutritious foods. #HandsOffSNAP #PAHungerCaucus @fracposts.bsky.social

Day 3 of living on $6.20 per day.
My lunch is a glass of water, a banana with a table spoon of peanut butter and a cup of tea.

Cory Booker, as mayor of Newark, put forth the SNAPChallenge ($4/day at the time).
Every member of Congress should have to spend every January living strictly on SNAP & median SSA benefits for the people they represent (district or state) in a shelter, if one exists in their district or state.

Busy day on the Hill today. Met with many in Senate and House to keep the pressure up on protecting #SNAP. Lots of enthusiasm for SNAP challenge. Frac.org/snapchallenge

The house budget is not the end - we still have time to push back hard.

Call your republican electeds. Demand no cuts to SNAP.

I haven't worked as a dietitian for many years, but still take great interest in food, nutrition, and food justice/equity. I signed up to take part in the #SNAPChallenge, which means spending $6 per person per day on food for 3 days.

My groceries for the three days:

The SNAP Challenge starts tomorrow!

$6 a day for food doesn’t cover much, but it’s the reality for millions. Ready to join the SNAP Challenge and help raise awareness? Sign up now and invite a friend to take action with you! bit.ly/3Q7eIVe

A budget of $5.16 a day for food! Could you do it?! Today, tomorrow & Wednesday our leader Milo Mumgaard is taking on the #SNAPChallenge bringing attention to the reality of #FoodInsecurity and what it means for our neighbors living on the margins. #StepUpForSNAP

I don't know if what @CoryBooker is doing is the single best way to draw attention, but it's a good one. http://tv.msnbc.com/2012/12/05/cory-bookers-food-stamp-challenge-stunt-or-learning-experience/ #SNAPchallenge

Can I just say how boss @CoryBooker is? The food-stamp/ #SNAPChallenge is such a great idea. Wish I could vote for him. http://bigstory.ap.org/article/nj-mayor-honor-twitter-food-stamp-challenge

Re @resnikoff MT - that's why the #SNAPchallenge matters. I know it feels disrespectful to some, but there is so.much. ignorance out there.

contrast: @corybooker life on $4 foodstamps/ day while @govchristie vetoes affordable health care exchange for N.J #SNAPChallenge

Awesome that you tried! RT @acbeckr: I failed the #SNAPchallenge. I went through my full supply of food in 5 instead of 7 days.
