A 1451 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to enacting the New York healthy vending act

This bill, the New York Healthy Vending Act, requires state agencies and vending machines on state-owned or leased property to offer healthier food and beverage options. It mandates that 25% of vending options be "healthy" immediately, increasing to 50% within two years and 75% after three years. "Healthy" options must meet strict nutritional standards, including limits on trans fat, sodium, calories, and sugar, with specific requirements for fruits, vegetables, whole grains, or nutrients like calcium. Vending operators must clearly label calories for non-transparent packages and display healthy options prominently, with fines of $100 for first violations and $500 for subsequent ones. The law applies only to state property and does not require installing vending machines.
