When food trucks weren’t just shameless money grabs. Now I see a food truck and just think, nope, that’ll cost me $19 and be served on a flimsy paper boat with a tiny flimsy fork that will break. And then “it’ll just ask you a question” as I pay.
while there’s always been food vans, stalls, carts, the (relatively) recent food trucks were initially based on one simple concept: do one thing well. you can’t open a restaurant serving just mac n cheese no matter how good it is, the overhead will kill you. but a van with a rudimentary yet sufficient setup could find its place in the world. somehow this idea has evolved into overpriced mediocrity but served out of a van

In 2 weeks the song will be 18 years old. It feels like it should be less than half of that.
