Up here you get two kinds of EBT, cash and food. But they're both on the same card. Pretty sure you can't just pull cash out. The idea is you can use your cash benefits to get toilet paper, detergent, stuff like that. But you can use it for anything technically. The store just has to have a machine that will accept EBT. Like my friends family gets $200 in food and $50 in cash on the same card.
