I didn't think you could get hot/prepared food with EBT? When I was on it, I couldn't even heat up a fucking sandwich in the gas station microwave before paying for it.

Homeless people only. They don't have a place to prepare food, so some fast food places will take EBT.

They definitely can, there's signage all over fast food joints where I live advertising that they take ebt.

Only for people experiencing homelessness. If you have a kitchen, no hot food for you even in California.
