    I think it's ok if the product is totally banned because it contains also substances that can be harmful to kids and even adult.

    Thanks

    it think if you want to drink soda they going to do it . drinking drinks is like your smokes you are not going to stop them I think if they want one then yes they should be able to get one ...and that is what living in American is about freedom which some people have forgot . and this thing about obes.... that just bull when you take away freedom you take away everything . I know I am not just talking about soda but it part of it...Its just pees me off because of the lunches the kids get at school is terriable when you got kids coming home starving because they don't get enough to eat or the food is not good ..you tell me why kids are stealing food out of stores and going outside to eat it is just ridiculous. and this is American the land of freedom that's bull too. and back to the soda s ..I am a soda drinker and I don't get stamps BUT DONT MESS WITH MY SODA .....AND YES I THINK THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET THEM ON STAMP THAT MAYBE THERE ONLY WAY OF GETTING THEM SO STOP THIS BULL CRAP ABOUT STOPPING THEM ...PLEASE I AM ALMOST FIFTY YOU JUST NEED TO STOP

    no I do not think they be able to soda with food stamps, and while I am at it they should not be able to buy candy either!! It should be only meats and vegetables. Food that has nutritional value,not junk food!!

    I think that if the parents are doing their job then the kid would not be taking advantage of the excess amount of soda drinking. Everyone should not be punished for the carelessness of a few absent minded individuals. I also believe that if they take action on this ban, they are singling out the lower class. which in my eyes and i'm sure many others, is very close minded and unfair.

    This is suppose to be the land of the free and they take way our rights to chose what we want to drink when there is other problem like Nation Debt and Murder! This is still the land of the free! You cannot work when people will not hire you because their scare of your mental health disorder! Too Everyone complaining where your money is being spent look no further than your president and Obama Care! What About freedom that has been fought for GENERATIONS! do all of our right taken away! If they ban Soda they could ban beer, whiskey, and other alcohol drinks!

    People that claim to need food assistance should not be buying anything but black and white label prouducts. .generic. They need to bring back the classes that the government use to have for those getting stamps so that they can use them appropriately. And by the way.... These people getting them are still able to sell them. Smh
