Gwyneth Paltrow is living on Food Stamps, or at least the average amount New York families receive each week. The Iron Man actress is taking part in the #FoodBankNYCChallenge in order to help keep SNAP benefits from being cut by raising awareness for the issue. This comes just shortly after the recently Goop guru defended her lifestyle website, which recently revealed her divorce from Coldplay’s Chris Martin, from accusations of being too lavish.
Gwyneth Paltrow is taking the Food Bank NYC Challenge, where you have to live off of $29 dollars of food a week, and boy does she know how to shop. Check out the pic the star tweeted after her recent trip to the grocery store:
“This is what $29 gets you at the grocery store--what families on SNAP (i.e. food stamps) have to live on for a week.”
Recently, Paltrow appeared on Bloomberg Television’ Market Makers,where she opened about some of the criticism that Goop has faced for being too out of touch with the common person(via US Weekly):
"I think there is sometimes a miscommunication. We aren't a super-luxury site, but we're aspirational. We have things on there that cost $4. We have things on there that cost $500. Sometimes I think that some of the criticism Goop gets is because people haven’t actually gone to the site and looked around and seen what we actually are."
