What is the FNA Restaurant Meals Program?
The Restaurant Meals Program (RMP) is a federal program, operated by individual states, that allows SNAP recipients to use their SNAP benefits at restaurants, including quick-service restaurants (QSRs), to buy prepared meals. The program increases access to hot and prepared foods to those who may not be able to properly store or prepare such foods. RMP restaurants are not responsible for determining the eligibility of SNAP recipients, the card will automatically decline if a SNAP recipient does not qualify.
