It looks like Albuquerque city workers fond of Snickers and Nutter Butters are in luck when it comes to finding their favorite snacks at work.

Mayor Martin Chavez has backed down on his proposed junk food ban. Chavez wanted to take out all junk food from vending machines and sell only healthy alternatives in all city buildings.

But after protests by the Commission for the Blind, which runs many city machines, the mayor backed down. The Commission for the Blind said such a move would destroy their business.

After discussion, the city and the group came to an accommodation according to KOB TV:

On Monday, a vendor said they came to an agreement with the city. The city will now stock half of the machines in city buildings with only healthy foods. The unhealthy alternatives will still be sold in the other machines.
