It depends upon what the felony is for. Most felons can get food stamps. The exception is drug felons - some drug felons can, and some can't get food stamps. In most cases, if the felony was for simple possession, you are still eligible for food stamps. If it was for sales or transportation, you are disqualified.
Unfortunately, food stamps can be a convenient currency among drug users and drug pushers.

The Lone Star program was founded in 1995 by the State of Texas. The program replaces traditional food stamps with an Electronic Bank Transfer card. The program began back in 1995. Most states go by this type of program these days and no longer use the original paper food stamps any longer.
Yes, food stamps is a federal program and federal law does not prohibit a previously convicted person from receiving food stamps.
