Five states have begun banning soda and candy purchases through SNAP — with 18 states seeking similar waivers. Is this smart public health policy or government overreach?
Michael speaks with Dr. Julia Wolfson of Johns Hopkins to break down how SNAP works, why 42 million Americans rely on it, and whether restricting “junk food” will improve health — or deepen stigma. From slippery slope concerns to the politics behind the policy, this is a thoughtful look at one of the most debated changes to food assistance in decades. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
