    I’m so confused, like were there not always street vendors or is it just that it’s fruit, do they just hate tajin, seriously wtf does this mean

      If I had to guess it’s likely some racist brainworms relating fruit street vendors with Latin American countries, unlike the checks notes all other non-ethnic street vendors like hot dogs or halal carts.

      Probably some transplant pretending to a concerned New Yorker. Fruit stands have always been a thing in NYC and almost always belong to people of color.

        Moves to one of the few cultured, decent spots in Amerikkka

        “Yo WTF!? Where’s the tater tots! I DEMAND A RIGHT TO IGNORANCE!”

        Ma’am, if you’re wealthy enough to move to NYC and hate its superior culture, please move back to the boonies and let someone who actually wants to flee the boonies have a chance at living there.

    She should be in favor of this. Literally the only argument against the stalls is that the owners don’t have the right permits, but conservatives fucking hate bureaucracy. What happened to the small business owner love?

      I’ve never really seen any white street food except the ice cream trucks. The only food carts I’ve seen are Mexican - typically elote carts.

      The most polite neighborhood I’ve lived in has been mostly hispanic as well.

        There’s a place near my old house that was an elote cart, but they did so well they built a permanent building on the lot and they’re not a cart any more. I’m happy for them but also the food got worse after it stopped being a cart.

      Racism really does eat away at and replace logic to some people to the point it looks like this. Crime stats are no way of telling what language a fruit vendor speaks. A child could tell you that. The pattern seeking part of their brain has just been replaced by racist platitudes.

    I would love some fruit card around town. I would buy fruit from them and eat those fruit. Fruit is good. It’s nature’s candy
