Too many problems. Would be cheaper and easier to just tweak current system. Whole host of problems would emerge: the food itself would have to be non-perishable, which limits the healthy foods that can be included a la fruits and veggies. Storage systems. Delivery would be a nightmare, especially for those who are homeless and or move all the time. Prime for tampering/whole other legal problems. Costs are certainly going to be higher.
One of those things that you think, “oh that makes sense”, until you actually get into the weeds of how it would work, or not work rather

The federal government already visits every address in this country 6 Days a week.
The half of the food stamps not replaced by the box can be used for fresh fruits and vegetables.
If you’re homeless or Move a lot, how are you getting your food stamps? Send it to the same place.
