Explain in simpler terms, please: The article makes the case that SNAP is an effective anti-poverty program that improves food security, health outcomes, and economic stability for tens of millions of low-income Americans. It argues that current SNAP benefits are inadequate for getting households through the month with a nutritious diet. The article pushes back against proposals to restrict SNAP from being used on certain foods like soda, candy, steak, etc. It states that SNAP recipients' food purchases are similar to non-recipients, and that restrictions would undermine the program's effectiveness while being administratively difficult. Instead, the article advocates for increasing SNAP benefit levels so households have enough for an adequate, healthy diet. It suggests policy solutions like basing benefits on USDA's more generous "Low-Cost Food Plan" rather than the current "Thrifty Food Plan" which is viewed as unrealistic
