How do supposedly poor people get so chubby?

go stand at the grocery store and watch what is in the carts of people on food stamps. soda, chips, candy, cookies, snacks, premade frozen dinners, boxed dinners..
generally not a healthy thing in there, then they go on to eat significantly more the a serving. they also manage to get to mcdonalds 3-4x a week.

food stamps should require a class in nutrition and food prep. adequate knowledge could cut their food budget in half.

In the DC area many of the poor on food stamps do not have stoves at home, or they simply don't have anyone who knows how to use pots and pans.

More typically today's newest arrivals on the food stamp circuit are formerly middle class folks who lost their jobs due to Democrat indolence and Obama's stupidity.
