In some states, if you have a Medicaid card, it also serves as your EBT card for food stamps, which you swipe like an ATM card at the grocery store. If you are eligible for food stamps but not Medicaid (which is possible, as the eligibility requirements are different), you will be given a separate food stamps EBT card that is not a Medicaid card.

If we're talking about Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP aka food stamp) benefits, the answer is, generally, no. There are some exceptions like seeds to grow food with. In Alaska, one can get fishing and hunting supplies. An EBT card may have other benefit dollars (from TANF) and these don't have the same restrictions.
