At La Fiesta Supermarket on the North Side, managers told KSAT that their systems will automatically update to reflect the changes. While the managers declined to speak on camera, they said that some confusion is expected at checkout once the new rules are officially implemented.The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued guidance to retailers outlining their responsibilities ahead of the change. Stores are required to confirm which products fall under the new restrictions, update their point-of-sale systems to block ineligible purchases and double-check product labels to ensure proper classification. In addition, retailers must train staff to understand the updated rules. Under the new policy, only sweetened beverages and candy will be ineligible for purchase with SNAP benefits. All other food items will remain eligible. Retailers who fail to follow the updated guidance could face serious consequences from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition Service, including disqualification from the SNAP program, significant fines and even criminal charges.Stephanie Serna is a weekday anchor on Good Morning San Antonio and GMSA at 9 a.m. She joined the KSAT 12 News team in November 2009 as a general assignments reporter.Family reacts to guilty verdict in Christopher Preciado trialCastle Hills police department says the armed suspect shot this morning has diedRecords show New Braunfels ISD pulling, restricting more books than it has publicly listed74 year old woman hit crossing South General McMullenNew emissions test could cost Bexar County vehicle ownersSan Antonio attorney admits stealing over half a million dollars from children's inheritance.Spurs respond after viral video at game sparks backlashReuniting items found along the Guadalupe River after the deadly floodsMan dies by suicide in police custody
