there is not much anybody can do for you if you are too stupid to understand the concepts of nutritional content, calorie count and meal preparation. Some Eastern states have been toying with the idea of letting food stamp recipients use them at restaurants, since that food would be better for them than whatever they’d choose in the grocery store.

At least they are thinking in the right direction. All the good, healthy food at the grocery store is simply unaffordable to someone who has to stretch a limited food budget to feed too many hungry kids. Pasta and cheap regular grade hamburger makes a lot of cheap meals.
