I dont think Sonny Perdue is going to be pushing a shopping cart down isle 7 at Kroger looking to fill up the box for the Smith family from Toledo. 

If done right, the box would have contents based on need. Sort of like WIC, which I think is a solid program that works well for mothers and children. It's also got very strict guidelines.

If they're not trying to cheap up and fill it with substandard food, then this could be a good thing for improving children's nutrition and fixing the problems in SNAP.
