The Food Stamp program is administered by the Department of Human Resources, Division of Family and Children Services through the Department of Family and Children Services in each county. Households may qualify for food stamps if they are employed but receive low wages, are unemployed or only work part time, receive welfare or other types of assistance payments, or are elderly or disabled and live on a small income. Owning a home and car does not preclude a household's receiving stamps.

The overall administration of the Food Stamp program is the responsibility of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the basic rules of the program are the same for all states.

I’m a huge fan of the FOX show “Kitchen Nightmares”. In the show world renowned chef, Gordon Ramsay, travels the country and tries to ‘fix’ restaurants that are struggling. 99% of the time, the kitchen is disgusting. Freezers haven’t been cleaned, uncooked meat left out over night, leftovers being reused, ruined ingredients left in the freezer/pantry. This got us thinking about the local restaurants that we all eat at every single day.
