Am I the only one who finds this wrong? And if I'm not, what do I do about it? Anything?

You are going to have to find out for sure. If it wasn't over say... $100 then scam or not, in the long run it would be easier to just reimburse them. If this was for a business function and this person is using their own money to purchase the food, then why are they on food stamps? Wouldn't there be better people to do the buying in the first place? We need more info on the "event" but yeah, this does sound shady...
