New York S02689 requires public schools to offer plant-based food options in food service upon request.

New York S02689 amends the education law to require public schools to offer plant-based food options in food service upon request by a student or a person in parental relation to the student. These plant-based options must be available as an alternative to every meal or snack offered. Schools must include information about these options in their written material describing food offerings. The plant-based food options must be offered at no additional cost to the student beyond what would be charged for a comparable non-plant-based food option.
