This petition is in relation to Mrs. Obama's "Let's Move!" program. Obesity is a major epidemic for our generation.
Food Stamp recipients are allowed to purchase candy, soda, and even Red Bull with their EBT card. The program should be amended so that they are not allowed to purchase unhealthy items. The only drinks they should be allowed to purchase is Milk (including soy milk for the lactose intolerant), Juice, and Water because those are the only drinks with health benefits.
Candy, or any other type of sweets such as cookies, should not be allowed to be purchased through the Food Stamp program.
All EBT recipients should also undergo nutritional counseling.
