That s how Taché Figueroa feels whenever she goes to the grocery store. Both she and her husband her high school sweetheart were forced to leave their jobs when the coronavirus hit last March, and with their four kids at home for breakfast, lunch and dinner, they have just $680 a month in federal food assistance to feed the family. Making it harder is that Figueroa doesn t want to buy just any food. She wants healthy food. Several years ago, the 31-year-old from Brockton, Massachusetts, was diagnosed with a rare brain disease and it was imperative, her doctor said, that she lose weight. High blood pressure and diabetes run in her family, though so far she has avoided them. And she also worries that one of her daughters the one with a vicious sweet tooth is becoming overweight.
