    Everyone I have ever known to receive SNAP has still called it “food stamps” even though they physical mechanism these days is a debit card. It’s just ingrained into American culture at this point. The name is probably not going anywhere any time soon.

      Right, but the form she shared a picture of says “food stamps”, and that’s just not going to happen.

      We still use an image of a floppy disk to save documents.
