Today I went Albertsons supermarket to buy items for a dinner party I was was having. I picked 6 Maine lobsters, 6 large Porterhouse steaks, 4 lb of jumbo shrimp, and 4 lb of sea scallops. I selected a number of great bakery items, including 2 large gourmet cheesecakes. I selected several bottles of fine wine. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

However, all that changed when i when to checkout and tried to pay with my EBT card. The cashier had a scowl on his face and told me I was a moron to try and pay for booze with an EBT card. I explained to him intelligently that wine isn't booze. It is a nutritious beverage that has been shown to have health benefits. He then called me an idiot and said I still couldn't buy it with an EBT card. So i went to pay for just the food. He told me to get out. The store didn't want the business of deadbeats and losers like me. The other customers were snickering. I felt so humiliated.

I went home and thought about it and called a manager. He told me the the cahier was right. He also told me me if I ever set foot in the store again I would be arrested for trespassing.

This isn't right. i earned those EBT benefits.

I am amazed at this post, LOL !

Si vis pacem, para bellum

Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God.

There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."Theodore Roosevelt-1907.

I am concerned for the security of our great nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within." -- General Douglas MacArthur

Last that I knew, only alcohol (including wine/beer) and tobacco are not allowed.

You can buy drink mixes to make mixed drinks as long as it contains no alcohol. You can buy candy, sodas, chips, truffles, caviar.

Oh, and this lobster thing has come up before. You can buy a dead lobster with EBT but you can't buy live animals which means no live lobster on an EBT card.

Maybe they thought you were wasting their time. 6 lobsters would be, what, $100. 6 Porterhouses would be another $50. Add another $100 for the other seafood and another $50-$75 for your cheesecakes and bakery items.

Sounds like you were trying to buy $300-$350 worth of stuff on an EBT card. It's pretty rare for any single man without small children to get $200 a month on EBT, I think. Usually, it's around $100 from what I've read. If you're an older dude, you probably don't qualify for more than $150 a month unless you're really destitute, like a homeless person.

Is this for real that you purchased all this fine food using an EBT card?

Don't be absurd...
I doubt if the jackass has ever even seen an EBT card...
This is just his way of mocking less fortunate people who actually need one.

Maybe he is a poor person who needs food stamps to throw a swanky dinner party.

Don't be so judgmental, Willy.

Why so bitter since 0dinga left the White Hut? Have you realized that 0bama with all his 0bamaPhone and 0bamaStamps and 0bamaCare giveaways somehow still didn't have any money left over to fund high-speed choochoos for dirty hippies to ride for free?

Thousands of miles of high speed rail lines opened while Obama was in the White House, it's just that they were all in China.

Well, I decided to check what was official on SNAP purchasing.

USDA:

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

Eligible Food Items

Last Published: 03/22/2017

Households CAN use SNAP benefits to buy:

  • Foods for the household to eat, such as:  
  • breads and cereals;  
  • fruits and vegetables;  
  • meats, fish and poultry; and   
  • dairy products.
  • Seeds and plants which produce food for the household to eat.

In some areas, restaurants can be authorized to accept SNAP benefits from qualified homeless, elderly, or disabled people in exchange for low-cost meals.

Households CANNOT use SNAP benefits to buy:

  • Beer, wine, liquor, cigarettes or tobacco
  • Any nonfood items, such as:
  • pet foods  
  • soaps, paper products   
  • household supplies
  • Vitamins and medicines
  • Food that will be eaten in the store
  • Hot foods

Additional Information

“Junk Food” & Luxury Items

The Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (the Act) defines eligible food as any food or food product for home consumption and also includes seeds and plants which produce food for consumption by SNAP households. The Act precludes the following items from being purchased with SNAP benefits:  alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, hot food and any food sold for on-premises consumption. Nonfood items such as pet foods, soaps, paper products, medicines and vitamins, household supplies, grooming items, and cosmetics, also are ineligible for purchase with SNAP benefits.   

  • Soft drinks, candy, cookies, snack crackers, and ice cream are food items and are therefore eligible items
  • Seafood, steak, and bakery cakes are also food items and are therefore eligible items

Since the current definition of food is a specific part of the Act, any change to this definition would require action by a member of Congress. Several times in the history of SNAP, Congress had considered placing limits on the types of food that could be purchased with program benefits. However, they concluded that designating foods as luxury or non-nutritious would be administratively costly and burdensome. Further detailed information about the challenges of restricting the use of SNAP benefits can be found here:

Report -- Implications of Restricting the use of Food Stamp Benefits

Energy Drinks

When considering the eligibility of energy drinks, and other branded products, the primary determinant is the type of product label chosen by the manufacturer to conform to Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidelines: 

  • Energy drinks that have a nutrition facts label are eligible foods
  • Energy drinks that have a supplement facts label are classified by the FDA as supplements, and are therefore not eligible

Live Animals

Generally live animals and birds are not eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits. Live seafood such as lobsters, fish and shellfish may be purchased with SNAP benefits.

Pumpkins, Holiday Gift Baskets, and Special Occasion Cakes

Pumpkins are edible and eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits. However, inedible gourds and pumpkins that are used solely for ornamental purposes are not eligible items.

Gift baskets that contain both food and non-food items, are not eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits if the value of the non-food items exceeds 50 percent of the purchase price. To read our most recent notice about Gift Baskets, click here.

Items such as birthday and other special occasion cakes are eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits as long as the value of non-edible decorations does not exceed 50 percent of the purchase price of the cake.

So I was wrong: live lobster is allowed. It is not considered a live animal to the feds.

Apparently. I can't imagine the FDA website is fibbing to us.

You also read that, at one point, that they could just withdraw cash from their cards if a merchant would allow it. I'm not sure if they have slammed the door on that but I know that I read it was allowed for at least a few years after the 0bama crew expanded these programs and made them more unaccountable and dropped any work requirements.
