A New Jersey deli is offering free lunches for SNAP recipients starting Saturday.

The Tracks Deli in Vernon, Sussex County will provide free bagged lunches to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program recipients when the benefits get suspended due to the government shutdown, according to a recent social media post .

The free meals will be available at the deli, located at 65 Vernon Crossing Road in Vernon, and will continue until SNAP benefits are restored.

Each complimentary lunch will include either a ham or turkey sandwich, accompanied by chips and water.

Recipients need only present their SNAP card to the cashier to receive the free meal.

The deli posted on social media that “no questions will be asked and no judgment passed” when SNAP recipients request the free lunches.
