When I was young there were almost no restaurants and few fast food places. Our mothers cooked, and maybe once a month or less, we went out to eat. Many times it was to an Amish restaurant. We had few McDonalds. The suburban city I live in has at the least: 3 fast food chicken places, 3 burger places, 6 sub shops, 3 pizza shops, 1 Chinese buffet, 1 Panera, 1 roast beef, 1 Applebee’s, 1 Chilis, 1 steak place, 1 sit down hamburger/rib place. We are not a large community. Surrounding us are cities with equal numbers of similar fast food places. Is it any wonder people are so obese! Food stamps should only cover meat, fish, poultry, cheese, milk, fresh fruits and vegetables. No prepared or frozen, or snacks should be covered.
Absolutely. No sodas, nothing with artificial sweeteners, no boxed potatoes, no frozen prepared, no lemonade, no artificial juice drinks. Only pure food, as pure as it can be with pesticides and fertilizers!

No sodas should be covered. Liquid sugar should be the first thing taken off the food stamp list.
