I never applied for food stamps, don't smoke, drink, etc., I feel there's always people worse off besides, I still care what people think of me & I really don't want anybody thinking I'm there for handouts, I do know of people going there just to get stuff when both man & woman work & they don't have any dependents unless it's married kids & their kids living with them @ times mooching, but I'm not trying to complain it's just aggravating I don’t ever get this stuff because of certain people commenting about handouts, my husband works 2 jobs, we have kids in school, they get free meals @ school, we do get WIC & I almost decide it’s not worth it when I get in line @ grocery stores & the slack doesn’t just come from other customers, although some people think they should cut that program out because they never got help.

No sure how you come up with that. From the story: The food..is only available with a valid form of Florida identification to residents of Century and the North Escambia area. There are no other eligibility requirements. Alabama residents are ineligible for the food giveaway. >So, the food is given away in Century, but Century residents are not eligible?

Feeding those wanting a handout, NOT awesome. I'd say bring your last four paystubs and last year's tax form and let's just see who is working their butt off just to get by and then feed them.
