If http://asktheexpert.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5264 is to be believed, you can use SNAP benefits to buy bottled water.

However, that doesn't solve the sewer and sanitation problems if the water to the house gets turned off (should we care about that?). I doubt SNAP benefits provide enough money to allow someone to purchase enough bottled water to provide for drinking and sanitation.

To return to the original conversation, should SNAP benefits include bottled water to provide for drinking and sanitation in case someone's water service gets turned off?
