Should also exclude beer, wine, tobacco and cigarettes.

I'm unaware of any government assistance program in the US that pays for such goods. But people with food stamps can buy groceries to sell for cash so they can buy booze, cigarettes, etc. Since the food is supposed to be for their kids this should be treated as child abuse. Blows my mind how many destitute people smoke.

It is a good bet that those items are already excluded.
