When you are homeless you do not have a stove to cook on or a refrigerator to keep things cold so what do you do with the food you can get at the grocery store with your EBT card? I think this would work for a lot of people. Hey, even having it set up so you can get a burrito and some Jo's from the convenience store would be good. I think there are some places that do this already. A Starbucks near me gives homeless people a cup of coffee for free.
