What I mean that margin is too high compared so simple scam when you cash out by selling your ebt money for real money.

You are over-thinking it. Many of these places won't have two prices for the pizza. They charge whatever they charge for it and that is the price. If you are in a gas station looking for food you likely aren't doing much price shopping.
But, assuming there were two different prices. I would then have to go to a store, buy $7 worth of food, try to find someone who will pay me $5 for that food then I travel to the gas station (or wherever I am buying it from) and buy the slice of pizza for $3. That is a hell of a lot of effort save myself $2.
