Reasons:
1) First tax payers pay for these plans, and when the beneficiaries spend it on sugary food and become obese and suffer from a number of diseases, it is tax payers who indirectly pay the emergency room/hospital bill.
2) If the recipients can't use the support to buy nutritional food, due to lack of knowledge, quantity of food they can buy, lack of self control - whatever be the reason, then they need to be told to do so. Because they need to learn that help comes with responsibility.
3) Price of food- If there is a restriction placed, all big food manufacturers will move on to next set of food that qualify under new guidelines and make them cheaper than it is today.
4) We need to say, it is NOT ok to feed a toddler potato chips and soda, one can feed them bread for the same price
