Honestly, I don't think so. You can actually claim 1 cent more per meal on your taxes. Keep a meal form, with every meal you served each DCK (not your own) and claim it at the end of the year. Tom Copeland has the numbers! You can claim, popsicles, pop tarts, random snacks that would not be allowed on the food program. (not that you should serve that stuff) but if you do, you can claim it! You don't have someone showing up randomly ruining everyones rhythm and being a pest. The only con is you don't get the extra check each month. It's all at the end of the year.
