The show I haven't gotten into yet is the Great Food Truck Race. On the surface it seems silly, I don't think I care about the challenges, I just want to know who are the trucks, what they serve and how it tastes. But now that I just put this in writing I realize that this is another place I can find out about more food trucks so before I criticize anymore I will set my TiVo to record a few episodes.
So far I am following the following trucks on Twitter and I have plans to visit them all including one's not on the list at some point. See you there!
As I try them I'll post my comments on those, click here.

- The Melt: R3 Told the most popular grilled cheese was the classic. Really, the classic (cheddar on white bread). SO, it was OK, but VERY BASIC. There was a salty seasoning sprinkled on the bread which I could have done without but it wasn't anything special. I wouldn't order it again but if I saw the bus and there wasn't a new truck to try I would give the mac and cheese a chance.
