      They wouldn’t be able to accept EBT if that was the case.

      I worked at a place that accepted EBT for a while. They removed the store’s approval because they didn’t sell enough milk, bread, eggs, cold meats, and butter.

      We only had around 1 or 2 EBT sales a month, so not a lot of people were terribly bummed about it.

      I don’t know how you can tell from the image? My local grocery store has a sign over the fish section offering to fry up your freshly purchased fish for free. I assume it’s done over in the hot foods area’s kitchen, but the sign is over the raw fish case. (There’s no mention of EBT though.)

          Around here, the grocery stores usually have a deli section that also cooks and sells ready-to-eat food, including fried chicken and chicken tenders. I suspect something like that is where this sign was seen

          Well if it is a fried chicken shop, they get “extra credit,” because it’s more work for them to redeem the EBT credits, whereas a grocery store already has that set up.
