2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumIn honor of that asshole Marco Gutierrez - give a shout out to your favorite Taco Truck!
How dare he make Taco Trucks sound like something that is wretchedly horrible. Tacos are not some sort of primitive food only the undesirables enjoy and Food Trucks in general have been elevated to a new level of high food quality eats!
I know in my state, anything with a 'food truck gathering' tends to bring out the best because we love the concept of choosing from several food trucks that give reasonable priced foods that have amazing taste and value. Last food truck event I went to had about a dozen different popular Food Trucks and brought out a few thousand people to dine on the food, drink awesome local craft beer and catch pokemons. These were not just single folks but families and a wide diversity of backgrounds.
We have so many great food trucks here in Northern Delaware it's not even fair to just list one favorite. But if trucks like Mojo Loco, Kapow or Brunch Box show up to an event, I know to expect amazing food that is worth waiting in line to order.
And those Food Trucks are great investments. Low overhead (just maintaining a truck) and the ability to go to wherever the crowds are located. I know many of the craft breweries, which rarely have kitchens, will promote new beer releases by inviting a few of these awesome food trucks to their event.
So to me, a 'Taco Truck on every corner' I think is a real win for this country. It means a great source of income for the owner and people dining out putting money into the economy.
So to you Marco Gutierrez - FUCK YOU you small-minded asshole who sells out his heritage to create is own version of 'Jews for Hitler'. You think supporting Trump will somehow make people not notice you happen to be hispanic? Why hide your heritage - embrace it, celebrate it and tell Trump to go fuck himself!

(95,337 posts)I've been to events in Philly at Penns Landing and the food is horrible. Usually some stand setup to make crappy burgers & fries. I remember paying $10 to attend the Gay Pride Parade after party at Penns Landing and was so disappointed with the Beer & Food selection. Philly has awesome craft breweries like Yards plus if they invited Food Trucks then they could have such a better selection of eats.
Which is why I love events in Philly. Delaware always makes sure that these events can get the very best food & beverages from the area (Dogfish Head is very generous!)
