Keep in mind that the subject is limited to a certain dollar amount...if one person wants to spend their allotment on organic foods, but get less over all, that should be their choice to avoid pesticides, growth hormones and GMOs. Also, many farmers markets are accepting food stamps: they products are often cheaper than grocery stores yet still organic. Also: how about we stop subsiding the meat, dairy and cheap oil/fructose industries? They get huge allottments of our tax dollars already, SNAP should not force people to give these industries even more governemtn dollars.
