Summary
The bill would stop Indiana SNAP recipients from using their benefits to purchase accessory foods such as energy drinks, sweetened and soft drinks, corn or potato chips, and prepared desserts like cookies, candy, ice cream, cakes and pies. It would still let them buy hot prepared chicken that is not fried or breaded. It also requires the state health department to promote healthy eating and provide low‑budget nutrition guidance.
