Original Broadcast Date: 08/09/2025

There's a growing trend across the country — more states moving to ban soda, candy, and other junk foods from being purchased with SNAP benefits. While supporters say these changes promote healthier diets and save taxpayer money, critics claim the bans are punitive and ignore bigger problems in the food system. In her Food News this week, Elizabeth examines what qualifies as “junk,” meanwhile the corporate lobbying is quietly influencing the conversation.

FOOD TRAVEL USA FAST FACTS About the Show

Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency, and homesteading-related topics to help protect us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio. In combination with terrestrial stations that carry the show, we reach people who don't normally listen to politically-driven talk radio. In addition to the LIVE FEED of the show on Saturday afternoons from 5pm–7pm (Eastern) / 2pm–4pm (Pacific), we produce and distribute a dozen podcast segments each week.
