Guess who the feds are feeding Cheez-its for dinner?

ExploreHere’s one Georgia company’s idea of a single meal:

One Baby Ruth: 32 grams of sugar

One pack of Airheads candy: 9 grams of sugar

A bag of Cheez-Its: 320 milligrams of sodium

A tin of Armour BBQ Potted Meat: 1,300 milligrams of sodium

The federal government paid this company for boxes of these meals, which contain more than an entire day's recommended intake of sugar and sodium. Guess who had to eat it.
