I can attest as a former fast food junkie it inspires only laziness. Simple sugar is an addictive drug and the fast food industry is the dealer.

Maybe they could throw in a little extra money each month for recipients who were willing to take a few cooking classes as well. It’s not even so much cooking as ‘food strategy’. You have to map it all out before even going to the store. Eating healthy on the cheap takes real skills and the ability + desire to work with the raw materials. Another thing that could be done is to assign a ‘food coach’ if a recipients weight/BMI gets above a certain level. That may sound a little intrusive, but I think it could be helpfull if done in the right way.
