Show Notes
Ohio receives federal approval to ban SNAP benefits for sugary drinks, starting October 2026. The two-year waiver targets drinks with high sugar content, like sodas and energy drinks. The move aims to promote healthier choices for food assistance recipients, following a review by experts on nutrition and child health. Ohio joins Kansas, Wyoming, and Nevada in this initiative, with twenty-two states now restricting SNAP items, mostly sugary drinks. Pennsylvania has pending legislation to limit junk foods.
