Brian Lockhart covers the Connecticut General Assembly in Hartford

House Minority Leader Lawrence Cafero is a smart man, but…

… he really needs to get the names of his sugary snacks correct.

Cafero, R-Norwalk, is currently lambasting a piece of legislation that would require restaurant chains include calorie information on menus.

In the midst of his speech he referred to junk food ingested by children, including something he called a “Yo Ho.”

Larry, you’ve got your “Ho Hos.” You’ve also got your “Yoo-Hoo.”

“Yo Ho” is what pirates yell and not to be confused with “Hi Ho Hi Ho” which is what dwarves sing while walking through the woods, perhaps while snacking on Ho Hos and drinking Yoo Hoo.
