Surprising numbers in this write-up. Still does not fully explain why most food trucks are charging restaurant-level prices for their dishes. Yes, the overhead is still expensive but at some point, the consumer has to see the reduced overhead filtered down into their prices.

If it's not faster, cheaper or more convenient than the to-go menu at a traditional restaurant, it sounds like "menu buzz" is the only thing keeping most of these trucks in business. How long can that last?
