I shop at a grocery store that has a high percentage of shoppers with subsidies. Now I know why they always run out of sweet potatoes.

This is insane. What Michelle and the potato council should be doing is educating people to eat the whole potato especially the potato skins.

A personal note. Yesterday, I was shopping, and what I encountered was hilarious and heartwarming. A young woman, 21, who is three months pregnant decided to do it right and work at it to have a healthy child. Her mother brought her shopping for the first time with her WIC list. The young woman did not know how to buy healthy foods as she always ate out junk food. The young woman was radiant and accepting the shopping situation with grace and humor. WIC might actually be a rarity....a gov program that does good, enabling this woman and others to have healthy pregnancies.

And then, you have the person that maxes out their WIC purchases and sells their booty to someone out the back door,

buys booze, cigarettes, and junk food with the proceeds.
