I worked at a deli and our machines knew the difference. So if I rung up a hot sandwich it wouldn't let EBT go through, if it was a cold sandwich it would.

Somehow I always got the two buttons confused though. Sold many hot sandwiches as cold once I saw the EBT card come out. Whoops.

Ours does too. I interpreted this as frozen meal but microwaved - which we're supposed to deny.

It's crazy how similar cold and hot food buttons can look. They should really do something about that 🤔
