    I would have grilled cheese and tomato soup in the summer and add chili in the winter.

    OMG...cheese...and bacon...and bread?! *swoons* I can resist the ice cream truck, but I would NOT be able to resist the grilled-cheese truck. Especially with tomato soup.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that loves cheese, especially the melted on buttery bread variety Around here there's a cupcake truck, a pizza truck, and now the grilled cheese truck. My uncle was talking about doing some kind of mobile food business and we thought crazy donuts would be fun. The breakfast crowd is an ignored group in the mobile food industry! Or my idea of the ice cream truck. Not crappy bars, but real hard ice cream and you make sundaes. That'd be supreme.

    The 2 a.m. truck would have both cupcakes and grilled cheese. Creeping through the neighborhood like the ice cream trucks, playing "Sugar Magnolia" on a music box - not too loud so as not to bother the sober citizens. Customers would stagger out of their houses like a cross between the Pied Piper of Hamelin and Night of the Living Dead.

    Add tomato soup to the truck and the sober citizens will join in as well

    This might be worth the bike ride to CT.... good way to justify the calories

    I'm surprised so many people are overlooking the pizza truck. It's a truck with an oven in the back and they make the pizza on the spot. I think that's pretty sweet. But I also have access to a brick oven, so it's not exactly a novelty to me. There are a whole bunch of Mexican vendors around the corner from work, but these other trucks are aiming for a slightly higher-end clientele. The cupcakes aren't run-of-the-mill cupcakes, but gourmet creations. It wasn't normal grilled cheese, it was a special blend of cheeses one normally wouldn't use in such a sandwich. I guess that's the new thing, gourmet food on the go.

    And the good news for me is every one I have had has been dried out and not so good. I tried 3 different types, 3 different trailers. I gave up, it is how they make them. Thank goodness since I have a weakness for cupcakes!
