Like I said in another post, even out here in BFE, you have a few women grocery shopping with EBT cards-they are all orcas-250 lbs or more, I swear-with carts full of boxed cereal, chips, candy, frozen convenience food and pizzas-all empty calories and carbs-they need nutrition classes and a 1200 calorie a day diet for sure-I eat about that amount, but it is fresh food that I cook, and I do a physical job-it is probably healthy, since I’ve weighed 108-110 since I was 17, except when I was pregnant...
When I was in college, there was an on-campus nutrition program meant for kids away from home for the 1st time who didn’t know anything about healthy eating or cooking fresh food-it was even free. When I was pregnant with the cub, my military insurance paid for Lamaze classes-and parenting and nutrition classes if you wanted them-if Obamacare is so great, why doesn’t it pay for that? Or better yet, make those nutrition and cooking classes a requirement for anyone getting an EBT card...
If we have to have government food programs they should be rationally needs tested, i.e. not testing whether they need money, whether they need calories! Record their height and weight. Those too fat get put on the diet plan: fewer calories and Moochelle’s menu. Bods AND enrollment will shrink. Orcas that don’t shrink get cut further or cut off. Weigh the whole family so orcas can’t eat the kids rations.
