Boxes of beans
Boxes of cheese
Boxes of powdered milk
Every month. Come on down and get your food handed to you.
That is still not healthy food-dried beans are good protein but you need other foods for more protein and other nutrients. “boxed cheese” is crap-like Velveeta-not real cheese, made from mostly heat-processed vegetable oil-very little real nutrition. Any milk is fine for babies-but not adequate calcium, etc for older kids, adults. You have to have real veggies, fruit, meat and fish-and real dairy products to be healthy.
Personally, I don’t care if people feed their kids unhealthy food or eat it themselves and the whole family are like hogs waddling around-but don’t do it on the taxpayer’s dime-we pay for that medicaid that the welfare recipients use, too. Why not food stamps for fresh veggies, fruit, meat, real diary only-and include a simple cookbook and easy-to-read nutritional info with each EBT card-eat healthy food or starve, as long as you are on public assistance...
You forgot the rice.
How long can a poor disabled senior live on that diet, and how many times do you think kids would eat it, or anyone.
Along with those who should not be getting aid or who should receive it for a very short time are some food stamp recipients who are feeding kids and some past working capabilities who are on them permanently.
I am on food stamps....I think that if the government is going to pay your food bill then government having a say in what is purchased is important...We don’t need the government paying for little Debie snacks at the seven eleven. We need just rice and beans along with some of the verry basics from a grocery store that is the lowest in price for the area.
