10.551 is not school lunch or WIC

National School Lunch Program (CFDA 10.555) and WIC are different USDA catalogs. Mixing those dollars into $6,840,578,338.11 would invent a broader nutrition total than this cell contains. SNAP employment and training and other 10.xxx lines use other numbers still. Facts available: North Carolina, CFDA 10.551, $6,840,578,338.11, 3 awards. Caseload and benefit-issuance counts are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, not a ranking of county food insecurity. Dividing $6,840,578,338.11 by 3 yields about $2.28 billion per award—a statewide pass-through scale, not a typical monthly SNAP allotment. Unique recipients are unpublished. 3 is not a count of grocery stores.
