For the record, I've baked a lot of shit from scratch, so there are differences between cupcakes and muffins, and frosting and icing. However, I'd say that the difference between frosting and icing is more different than between cupcakes and muffins - sometimes.
Muffins are more akin to type of quick bread whereas cupcake batter often really is basically no different than cake batter in most cases. It's really the chemistry of ingredients ratios that creates the major differences, in addition to the fact that people tend to use a wider variety of flours/grains in muffin making. Cupcakes have more sugar content in the batter compared to any other ingredient, and I'd say are closer to an angel food cake in particular (light, fluffy, not savory due to less fat content/less egg yolk than some other types of cake.) Also one might choose to use cake flour for a cupcake (this type of flour if finer/has less gluten content in order to maximize fluffiness.) Muffins are generally a little more dense and savory and have more full egg content. Also, basically frostings have a more equal ratio of fat to sugar whereas icings are predominantly sugar, and frosting is typically not cooked but whipped up with a lot of air content whereas many icings are cooked/melted and less fragile generally. They also may be quite viscous at room temperature owing to these properties. |

It may seem strange, but you really can just walk in there and order some tea and a muffin. After you pay for it, they will make the tea for you and put it in a to go cup. Then you can leave the shop with your purchases and consume them wherever you like.

UNFORTUNATELY? Christ. Do we really need dipshits spending their entire EBT balance for the month on a couple of meals at a restaurant? To me, that, or ready made meals, or even purchasing candy bars with an EBT is abuse of a system designed only to help with absolute essential needs. Those are all either a) junk, or b) value added items, as in you are paying extra for the cost of labor/service in addition to the food itself. For the record, I don't think people get quite enough in benefits...but I think that what it can be used for should be more tightly managed also.

There is also the little matter of how grocery stores totally rely on food stamps to stay open. And many of them "cheat" a little with the cold food thing. You aren't supposed to be able to buy anything ready-made, but in reality you can buy it if it's not hot, so stores use those loopholes all the time. Yes obviously people shouldn't abuse it like you say with trading it for cash or doing things like returning food for cash or store credit to buy cigs or alcohol. |

Should someone not be able to buy a sandwich at Subway when they can buy the same thing at a grocery store with SNAP/EBT? What if they work two jobs and one night need to grab something quick for their kids, should they not be able to stop and get something really quick like any other human being on earth? "Ready made meals" - what about things like a can of chili, or a fresh fruit salad (after all you can buy canned for less), who needs real deli meat AMIRITE just get some $1 Oscar Meyer Bologna and grab some Ramen Noodles and have a heart attack at 45. Stores work around it - they need that EBT money. People buy the cold rotisserie chicken and microwave it instead of the hot one - who does that help? Who the fuck cares? They can buy a cold sub but can't get it heated up. They can buy cold mac and cheese. You might not agree with what other people buy, but they idea that you can decide what people "deserve" to eat is pretty asinine. People who begrudge people their food stamps need to take a look at their priorities, IMO. |
