It’s a game of carrots and schticks!
Dressed up as a carrot, State Sen. Zellnor Myrie attempted to take a chomp out of junk food marketing on Thursday with his new bill that would food regulators to target corporations that advertise unhealthy foods.
Myrie — who represents parts of Crown Heights, Brownsville, Park Slope, and Sunset Park — discussed the bill on Oct. 28 while donning the big orange carrot costume on Empire Boulevard near Washington Avenue in Crown Heights, a strip dominated by fast-food chains.
