It is not just the Trump administration that has been fighting for better nutrition for the poor.  Even Michelle Obama made this a major part of her agenda.  Maybe the Rump administration should adopt Michelle Obama's list of healthy foods and restrict use of food stamps to those foods.  Tell the foodstampers that they are restricted to the "Obama List" of foods.

The new Secretary of Agriculture would do her part, and best part of reimagining food assistance is the better health restored of the recipients.

We need to reduce our spending on food stamps. Restricting food stamps to Michelle Obama's list of healthy foods would be a great way to get the food stamp crowd upset at their own side.
