A 7423 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Sets nutrition standards for restaurants distributing incentive items aimed at children

This bill requires restaurants to meet specific nutrition standards for meals, food, or beverages sold with incentive items (like toys, games, or digital rewards) targeted at children. Restaurants may only offer these incentives if the accompanying food meets standards set by the health commissioner, covering calories, sodium, fat, sugar, and requiring fruits, vegetables, or whole grains. Violations carry civil penalties of up to $2,500 for repeated offenses. The law directly affects all restaurants serving the public, including fast food and cafes, that distribute such items to children.
