I would actually like this to occur at my WIC office but so far can't get
anyone to "approve" using it.  It's the whole guilt thing again.  I do
have a copy of a great one to use if anyone would like to see it.
Personally I think it's akin to putting warning lables on dangerous
products and feel it is our duty to inform.

BTW,
I am appalled that you are saying some states have done away with the
nutrition ed portion of the WIC certification (it is our primary focus
here) and that you use the term "warrants" for checks or vouchers, sounds
criminal!!
