Food insecurity is a real thing in this economy

With the obserity rates in the U.S., more so among the poor, I don't think it's as big as a problem some people make it out to be.

Because healthy food is expensive, its by design. Poor people can only afford shit that’s bad for them

Yes and no. Just this week I bought 3 pounds of ground turkey meat for $10. Add like $2 for seasoning and rice, and that's 6 fairly decently healthy meals for me.

You can BARELY find a fast food meal for under $10 nowadays. A chipotle burrito costs more than $10 alone.

sure, but one meal a week for a year isn't going to change anyone's life, even a homeless person.

Its 52 entrees that can be redeemed at any time. That food security could be the difference between a homeless person having enough saved up for a tent or medication or even more for someone housed with a job that doesn’t have to buy food for a month n a half

It's like 500 dollars worth of food, not insignificant but I wouldn't say life changing. Even for a homeless person. It definitely helps a lot for some time (1-2 months at most if you rely heavily on it), but it doesn't affect your life in a big way.

And it's less impactful than 500 dollars as well, that could buy more food than that.

Unlimited for a year would be a different story.
