This time she has a new and gripping story to tell about what the government might not want you to know about how food stamp allotments are calculated.

Angela Babb is a food researcher and a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Ostrom Workshop at Indiana University.

The Earth Eats' theme music is composed by Erin Tobey and performed by Erin and Matt Tobey.
