“Cash only. I don’t have Venmo because I’m not some teenage asshole who vapes”
That part got me haha
People are actually in this thread discussing how feasible this is as if it were a real plan down to calculating specific costs and supporting them with URLs.
Never change, Lemmy.
Many of us do have this fantasy.
I’m sick of seeing $6 for a bag of fries and $12 for a basic ass sandwich.
I mean, it’s a bummer when the bougie burger places do this, but when the taco trucks and teriyaki shops near me started costing more than $2 a taco or $10 for a plate of yakisoba, I knew shit was getting hard out there.
Here in Canada we’ve got trucks selling 3 tacos for like $18. People here are out of their minds
My god. I mean, it’s probably a fair price to pay for no mass shootings and universal health care, but still wild.
$10 yakisoba???
I live in a small town in Oregon. A few years ago, it was $7. Now it’s $10.
Gaslamp district in San Diego had a cafeteria like this years ago, guessing it’s no longer a thing, but simple cheap menu would have steady customers, maybe profitable, it’s the business development people who would oppose.
A few years back in HollandN(UTRECHT) one shop actually ONLY sold sandwiches (not grilled) for a buck or so. They had LINES. Then shit got renod
None of this sentence makes any sense at all man
Just saying the concept works, ppl DO want a simply Sammy for a buck and the ingredients are less as 30% of sales price even with some real decent toppings. But renovation (and extreme rent) only allows multi nationals to compete at busy places like city central stations etc.
Yeah, hi. I’m lactose and gluten intolerant and I was wondering if…
Yes you can fuck off with or without grilled cheese.
If you ever find yourself around Cleveland, OH, find a Melt: https://meltbarandgrilled.com/menu/
To be fair, I’d pay $5 for 5 grilled cheese sandwiches and eat them all in one setting.
There would be a line around the block. This is the grilled cheese of everyone’s childhood. Add a sprinkle of salt or use salted butter when cooking on the skillet and I would be in line with everyone else holding a fiver.
Salt? That’s it, your head’s going on the griddle.
Man, I’m so embarrassed for them.
Really? A very light sprinkle of salt when the sandwich is on the buttered griddle is the shit, especially if you’re using a cheese that is lower in salt. Get that nice crust on the bread with a savory pop. Combine that with a tomato soup and it’s the bomb.
Don’t knock it until you try it.
Edit: bloody purists. Gonna turn this into a melt/grilled cheese thing aren’t you.
You’re really asking for it, huh.
Tomato soup? Gonna have to flip your head over on the griddle. This is embarrassing for you.
(in case you never got it, read the right side of the food truck.)
But I didn’t say anything about a tomato!
(Yeah, I missed it)
I’d probably double that menu to include coffee.
No cream.
No sugar.
Take your coffee and grilled cheese sandwich and fuck off over thereabouts
What kind of combo is grilled cheese and coffee? Lemonade and grilled cheese, maybe.
Coffee is life.
There is nothing coffee doesn’t go with
Eat what you like,but if you want a “melt”, go to a restaurant. If you just want a grilled cheese(or toastie),go to the truck. Simple. And damn,why isn’t this a thing? I’d kill for a simple grilled cheese rn

Seriously, making me feel reeeeal old that I get this reference. NOCOKE , pepsi!
Cheeseburger cheeseburger cheeseburger pepsi
no pepper. no hot sauce. no dippin that in a fryer. no fresh tomato slices. the only point of this being an entire food truck is to cover it in angry words.
None of those things you mentioned are ingredients in grilled cheese. The purpose of the food truck is to make grilled cheese.

Selling hot coffee to prostitutes on the street in winter at night
What happens if i pay $1.50?
Do I get .50 back? Or do i get half a sandwich or do I just get bread or just cheese or a bread with cheese but not grilled?
Read section: bottom left; No change given, sort out your own shit.
He’ll make you two sandwiches, but he’ll take three bites out of one of them.
What happens if i pay $1.50?
Like Chelsea Handler and his other exes, you lost 50 cent.
Can we make this a national chain? So many people just need this sometimes
How much is Panera charging for their grilled cheese these days?
It was like $4 last I was there, but that was years ago.
$8.40 +tax last time I went there, however forced to have a “free” side
What the fuck.
panera grilled cheese are a bit more artisan than the above yellow food truck’s
Truly it’s not though. Their bread is trash and American cheese is American cheese. And I guarantee they do not use real butter.
