Abstract: The revised (1983) edition of USDA's thrifty food plan (which replaces the 1975 thrifty food plan) is presented. Information is presented in 3 parts: what the plan is and why the plan was revised; the development of the plan; and the estimated cost of the plan. Incorporated is new research-based information on consumption, prices and nutrient composition of foods and nutritional requirements for humans. The thrifty food plan is the basis used to calculate benefits in the Food Stamp Program. The food plan contains food groups households might purchase, and lists quantities of food groups needed by sex-age categories. The food plans strive to incorporate usual food habits, making adjustments only to improve nutritional content of the diet and to control costs. The 1983 thrifty food plan incorporates more fruits and vegetables, grain products, dry beans, and less meat, poultry, and fish than are normally purchased by food stamp households. The plan encourages the limitation of fat, cholesterol, caloric sweeteners, and sodium. Sample meal plans with appetizing and nutritious recipes are included. (kbc).

Abstract: A GAO report provides an overview and perspectives on the U.S. Food Stamp Program (FSP) and highlights 5 major program issues. The issues are: accountability and integrity, program simplification, nutritional adequacy provided by the program, interrelationship of the FSP with other food assistance programs, and program coverage and eligibility requirements. The report discusses the implications of each of these issues and the related concerns of the issues, past efforts that have been undertaken to address them, actions yet to be implemented, based on prior recommendations, and other, related factors that need to be considered. A bibliography of documents used to develop the FSP issues is appended. (wz).
