More Fresh Produce Carts in NYC Low-Income Neighborhoods
From The New York Times: The city has approved 1,000 new mobile food carts for neighborhoods in all five boroughs known as "food deserts" where traditional supermarkets, grocery stores and farmers’ markets with fresh produce are scarce. When comparing prices between the cart and a market a few blocks away, the market was more expensive. "Bananas were 99 cents a pound instead of 50 cents, strawberries were $3.99 a container instead of $1.50 and peppers were $1.89 a pound instead of $1."
