Food Stamps are a nutrition program that supplements a low-income family�s food budget in order to ensure they are getting adequate nutrition. Food Stamps can only be used to purchase food items. The program name is Food Stamps but beneficiaries no longer receive their benefits in stamps. Instead, they receive them electronically on a Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card. Recently the Food Stamps program was renamed to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
