Talk:Food truck

message: I am removing the link to greasetruck.org.  The site is mainly full of ads.  Besides, there are literally scores of millions of things in the universe now that have "inspired" a web page devoted to them.  Doing so is really no longer a notable accomplishment.  Besides, the inclusion of the link and its description really added no content to the article. -Seidenstud 18:17, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I have changed the paragraph on grease trucks slightly... the statement that "The concept of Grease Trucks began when a Rutgers student decided that he would mix multiple types of common foods (steak, cheese, chicken fingers, french fries, mozzarella sticks, jalapeno poppers, etc) and combine them into a single sandwich" is misleading... the Grease Trucks predate Fat Sandwiches by quite a bit, but Fat Sandwiches are what made them famous.  They were selling greasy deep-fried food for a long time before the first Fat Cat. Cory 18:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Changed one of the statements on Grease Trucks

message: Okay, so there are only one or two now, but what are the criteria for putting a notable food truck on here? Leo's Taco Truck, for example, has been put on here because it is mentioned in a college's student guides. I know of local trucks in Chicago and Philly that have equal reknown. For a truck to be on here it should have some national claim to fame. There just too many non-notable local favorites to list them here. - AKeen 23:27, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: [[WP:FOOD]] Tagging

message: No doubt, some people who visit this article are interested in starting one, and it would be useful if there were a note of the legal requirements (licenses, inspections, etc.) that are necessary for doing so. It is worth noting because there is likely to be confusion on the startup overhead and liability of a mobile vendor like a food truck or hot-dog cart; most people would probably wonder if it is easy/cheap to start one of these as compared to a restaurant (like selling at a farmer's- or flea-market).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Synetech (talk • contribs) 04:53, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: Business and economic aspects of food trucks would be worthy additions. Can't see how including that type of info would constitute a how-to unless written as one. --Tsavage (talk) 21:41, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Basic costs and requirements of starting one 

message: The article is repeatedly targeted to promote individual providers over others. This article is about food trucks in general. Any mention of individual trucks and providers should be important to the understanding of food trucks in general and should not cherry-pick from sources.
Multiple editors are adding content with little or no effort to incorporate it with related content. This creates duplication and undue weight. --Ronz (talk) 02:14, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

message: Given the topic, I'm not sure what level of reliability we should require, but I found these two to be questionable:
*Samuelsson, Marcus, , Mobile Food News.com, June 28, 2011.  Retrieved: September 6, 2011.
*Lempert, Phil, , Supermarket News.com, October 25, 2010.  Retrieved: September 6, 2011.
Comments? --Ronz (talk) 17:04, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed a "reliable source?" tag beside Marcus Samuelsson, read his article, do a quick web search, he is a notable chef and food author. Supermarket News is an American weekly trade publication for food retailers. I don't see any problem with either as sources for this topic. If there is a specific issue with reliability with either, please elaborate. --Tsavage (talk) 21:26, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

message: *Merge. Yes, by all means, merge them. A true food truck sells vegetables, meats, etc.  See http://framework.latimes.com/2011/09/21/1921-food-truck/ for a photo of one. Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 01:27, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: For my friend David Turner—the user could still type "food truck" in the search box and would be led to "Mobile catering." You could use the phrase "food truck" in the first paragraph of the article to provide context. There really is no sense in having two articles on the same phenomenon. Thanks for listening.

message: American-style trucks selling restaurant-quality food first appeared in Paris in 2012...
Paris is not the whole France since there is trucks selling restaurant quality food in the whole France long before 2012, especially in Marseille or Northern France. And some may say that burger isn't really a restaurant quality food, especially in french's standards. Matieu Sokolovic (talk) 16:47, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

message: Removed this paragraph from the lead. It really doesn't say any thing useful (I find it kinda silly and obvious), it's almost entirely unsourced, it's US-centric, and the lists seem random and arbitrary. Similar info can be better summarized from the article. The para is here, because it's a fairly big deletion, so editors can check it out and see if they disagree. --Tsavage (talk) 01:34, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
