Great. Now the poor won’t have access to FRESH veggies and fruit from the Farmers Market (Easton: apartment, luxury)

Anyone on SNAP who is stupid enough to waste his benefits on rip-off greemarketeers should have the right to do so, or even to flush his card down the toilet, which is essentially the same thing.
When we say poor or lower income areas we are referring to the projects, u know that...
Corona aint even really that poor
I looked up median income for Corona vs other areas on City Data's site and this is what I found
Corona - $50K median income, average household size of 6
Brownsville - $30K median income, average household size of 3.4
Soundview - $38K median income, average household 7.3
Morrisania - $30K, 5.2
Median income is median household, not individual.

The City should DE-license these thieves.
KK stop being so judgmental. This summer heat must be getting to you.

This is NOT good for SNAP recipients. They have the right to fresh fruits and veggies.
if there is no demand and/or profit for business to serve the poor areas, then they won't be served. Its pretty simple. If you aren't happy, just go with the standard mantra, hate the rich people
Sure, until you come down with a vicious norovirus, or any of a number of parasites.
Who TOLD you vegetables were healthy? What evidence did they provide you with? The Apple board will tell you APPLES are healthy, the Cereal lobby will tell you grains are healthy, the Dairy Board will tout the wonders of eggs, milk and cheese.
It's called ADVERTISING.
They used to hire doctors to tell you CIGARETTES were healthy.
Atkins had half the country convinced that FATS were healthy and carbohydrates were poison. Soy meat substitutes, quinoa, mega-dosing of vitamins, fish oils, Omega-3 fats...it goes on ad infinitum.
And all this poppycock changes decade to decade just like fashions from Paris.
Don't swallow this silliness like a hungry twink at the Mine Shaft the first time.
"Healthy" is just another gimmick to charge premium prices.
