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.


Are Snap and the EBT foodstamp cards the same things?

Yes. Both are the same card. I have worked for the state so I am sure. Snap and EBT are the same benefit but there is also another benefit that can come on the same card and this is welfare and you can only get this if you apply and are approved. It does not come automatically with Snap benefits.
