      abstract = {This paper uses nationally representative data to describe  a monthly cycle in food expenditure and food intake by food  stamp recipients. Food expenditure peaks sharply in the  fIrst three days after food stamps are received. Actual  food intake drops at the end of the month, for some foods  and some people, although food intake over time is always  smoother than food expenditure. The food stamp cycle has  implications for two areas of research: the measurement  ofhunger and food insecurity in the United States, and the  measurement ofthe impact ofthe U.S. Food Stamp Program.},
