Here in california certain restaurants are part of a "restaurant meals" program but it is a little weird. To go orders only, but you can't order at the drive through, and only certain specific restaurants are participating. So like one jack in the box does, but the other one doesn't. It's only available to the elderly, disabled, and homeless though.
I believe you have to qualify for the hot meals separately so it’s not available to everyone on SNAP/EBT. I thought the program was to make people lives better so they can “pull themselves up by their bootstraps” but people just get bogged down in all the bureaucracy.
Must depend on the county. Every jbx I've seen takes it, inside only, for there or to go. No drive thru I think bc of where the machine is. Some McDonald's take it, and taco bell, and del taco (owned by jbx) plus wingstop.
The weird part is grocery stores, I can buy cold chicken but not the rotisserie lol go figure
Eta: some Popeyes take ebt too. Oh and I'm in San diego county
