Do you receive CalFresh / SNAP / EBT and have school-age kids? Don't forget about free school breakfast!

If the government shutdown continues and SNAP benefits are delayed in November, your child's public school still has free breakfast available. No paperwork is required!

Handmade with heritage, Fang’s Divine Chili Oil is smoky, garlicky magic in a jar—made with love, bold enough for dumplings, ice cream, and everything in between. Born in China, made in Sacramento. No junk—just flavor that bites and blesses. #akipbusiness #saceats #AKEats #chililove
