Revise the Food Stamp program so recipients can only buy health foods!

Created by E.D. on March 20, 2013

Implement the suggestions set forth by The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, a D.C.-based nonprofit.
The Physicians Committee has proposed limiting SNAP purchases to whole grains; fresh, frozen or low-sodium canned vegetables; beans; and fruits.
This meal plan would supply 65 percent less fat than the average American diet and twice the fiber, according to the committee.
