Well a lot of times my mom cooks dinner at my house...before everything got all messed up with getting a bit over 400 initially with the SSI, had to report to them I was paying rent of 300 a month to get them to raise it to the 721$ full amount. During this they reduced my food stamps from like 250 to 18 dollars, so I went there and told them I would be starting paying rent in the next month and they said in that case they could give me more in food stamps...but then only raised it to 22 dollars when the impression I got is I'd at least get maybe 50 to 100...but I think it might have to do with SSI raising my amount even though there is still the rent...

but yeah before that i would get groceries a lot of stuff to snack on and some stuff to cook meals as well as bottled spring water since I honestly feel somewhat better over all when drinking that rather than the filtered city water in my house. Its kind of hard for me to cook full meals and plan them and what not and its hard for me to eat a lot at once so I was doing my thing and eating a meal or two and snacking throughout the day....but since they cut those I haven't been able to afford stuff to snack on(and I don't mean junk food, just even fruit, vegtables, pickles, veggi chips, sandwich stuff like meat, spinach and cheese) and my mom and her boyfriend have been going on a bunch of camping trips and not really doing as much grocery shopping as usual...the other week I pretty much was living on canned chili, got creative with it by adding black beans and some canned tomatoes/jalapeneos and stuff

Not sure what you mean about giving my mother x amount of board, I am already paying her 300 dollars of rent to live here....so that part isn't an issue its just the food thing.
