The level of ignorance about nutrition is astounding even in this forum. This is largely because of all the nonsense perpetuated by the “diet” industry, but also because people like to believe in shortcuts and easy explanations.
I have no doubt that Judicial Watch is referring to genuine waste, but it would have been nice if the article would have linked to some of the nonsense that they are referring to. When the government is filing out 100s of Billions of dollars to people who are allowed to use the money to buy unhealthy processed crap, it doesn’t seem completely unreasonable that some percentage should be used to help them make better choices. But I don’t know what Judicial Watch, one of my favorite watchdog organizations is referring to because the article does not say.
Thanks Android autocorrect for changing doling to filing.

Because who can you trust to have unbiased information? The official pyramids were bought and paid for by food companies. We get a steady stream of random studies and news articles with statistically insignificant studies that contradict each other and all the healthy food nuts are into garbage science and vague scaremongering.
