If you’re not charmed by the food truck fad, then this week may have been slightly dull. If a food truck sighting is tantamount to spying a unicorn or an In-N-Out, then the blogosphere has some good news for you.
It has something for you non-believers too. You like pictures of hamburgers, right?

You know blogs usually like to tell you what to eat? This time, Nancy Nichols has a roll call of all the foods that annoy Dallas diners, starting with cute foods. Personally, I enjoy a good wad of cake of a stick. But I agree that lamb lollies border on gimmicky.
I cannot believe there were three food truck sightings in one week. This is the last time I’m mentioning it. Food truck, this time in Dallas. Knock yourselves out.
