Explanation:

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is an assistance program provided by the United States federal aid program which provides benefits to mostly the low and no income population of people residing in the United States. These benefits enable households to purchase food items that have been clearly stated by the United States Department of Agriculture.

According the rules, garden seeds and ready-to-eat hot foods are the only items listed in the options provided in the question that can be purchased with the SNAP benefits.  

Seeds can be purchased as long as they are deemed fit for household consumption. Some restaurants are also allowed according to the rules to accept SNAP benefits, meaning, ready-to-eat hot foods can be purchased as well.

Vitamins and cleaning supplies were clearly listed as part of the items that cannot be purchased with the use of the SNAP benefits .
