FOOD TRUCK

Food trucks used to be somewhere fast to get meals for office workers in cities
across the United States. The food used to be just average, certainly nothing to
boast about. Food trucks were a matter of convenience, and usually offered
inexpensive meals. At lunchtime in cities across the United States, workers lined
up to order a sandwich and a canned soda. The meal rarely cost more than five
dollars. They took their food and ate as they walked. Some workers would take
their food back to their offices and eat in the company lunchroom or at their desks.

Food trucks have come a long way. They are no longer thought of as just fast food
on wheels. Now food trucks are considered a gourmet dining experience. There are
food trucks selling cuisine from all over the world. There are Korean barbecue
food trucks and food trucks that sell lobster rolls. There are even food trucks that
specialize in desserts. These dessert food trucks sell more than just ice-cream
cones. They sell cakes and pies. There're even cupcake trucks.

Food trucks have become so popular that many use social media to reach
customers and create a fan base. Some food trucks use Twitter to let customers
know what their menu for the day. Other food trucks use Facebook to let customers
know on what corner they will be parked.

These clean food trucks, with their gourmet food and large fan base, are not a
bargain anymore though. Rarely can you get a meal from a food truck for less than
ten dollars. Some people think the price is worth the quality. Others just bring
sandwiches from home.
