Everyone is forgetting the point. It is not our job to police what is a luxury food or what is not, its our job to accept payment within guidelines. Sure, people may be buying ice cream and other consumables (candy) that they do not "NEED", but the SNAP guidelines say it is OK, so we should not be playing food stamp police.
Now WIC on the other hand, clearly states what is eligible and what isn't.
WIC is enough of a pain that at my store, only GSAs and higher can ring up WIC sales.
