Would you do business with this guy?

No thanks.

He's most likely breaking local food laws considering most cities require a food vendor cart to have a hand-washing sink. Doubtful he's wearing any disposable gloves while serving food.

Never mind the random 55 gallon steel barrel grill that may or may not have contained hazardous waste in 1975 or the styrofoam food containers on the shopping cart that looks like it was pulled from the bottom of the Hudson river.

Thanks

Well, I would estimate that about 100% are breaking the laws! YESTERDAY, a person WAS wearing a glove, while running my food through the scanner. The have the scanner where it can't reach the food. She takes my drinks and puts her UNCOVERED hand over the cap part to hold it up to the scanner, etc...

SERIOUSLY, they could have had a wand and used the scanner withut coming within 6 inches of the food, but they have to do THIS. I don't know about HER, but the one next to her was even coughing and sneezing into her hand. And I told you about firehouse subs, and we all heard about chipotle, etc....

This is further proof that even I am not capable of free will. And that, given enough time, we are all completely predicable.

If there's any point to a BBQ, it's the primal and socially bonding experience of cooking the food outdoors yourself. And even if it tastes like charcoal, at least nobody else but you can be blamed for the resulting food poisoning.

If you're going to do away with that, you might as well order a takeout from a real restaurant.

I'm not really into going to people's houses for that primal social experience thing. I just want the BBQ and don't really feel a need to cook it myself.

There was a news article on yahoo today about a woman whose husband divorced her after 20 years of marriage. She didn't know what she would do .... but being a good cook, she bought a truck and started the Brown Shuga Soul Food truck. Eventually expanded to 2 trucks and is highly successful. I would eat there, at least once, to try it out, as I would any BBQ truck.

I don't always feel like going to a restaurant. A truck is a quicker, more casual option and you can order bits and pieces or a whole meal.

  The guy rolling down the street doesn't even begin to meet minimum health standards, but this woman has her permits and hasn't been shut down, so one has to assume she's doing it right. That fecal matter issue can be an issue anywhere, in any restaurant, in anyone's house. Just takes one person who doesn't wash their hands.

I get that. But where I live you can phone through an order for virtually any type of food and have it delivered to your door within 30 minutes.

I wasn't knocking the guy's enterprise. Just not a great fan of barbecues - or barbecued food that much. And to me it's always seemed a bit perverse to fire up an outdoor grill just a few yards away from a perfectly well-equipped kitchen.

  I had Great Expectations when I met Our Mutual Friend. But, he looked like he was going through Hard Times as he ushered me into his Bleak House. He offered me some Little Dorrit'oes and we sat down to a long conversation about his recent investments in Dombey And Sons who ran The Old Curiosity Shop on the Old Kent road.
  
  His business partner Oliver, Twisted uncomfortably in his chair as he recanted the story of The Mystery of Edwin Drood, the store manager who had recently disappeared with the proceeds of the last week's takings. Inspector Barnaby Rudge of Scotland Yard and his trusty assistant, Sgt Martin Chuzzlewit thought he would be difficult to find in the thick London fog. They held little hope.
  
  My eyes wandered to the tv that was airing a David Copperfield magic show. Outside, A Christmas Carol was being sung as singers were knocking on doors to raise money for a criminal investigation into shady goings on in Sheffield and Birmingham. One man called Nicholas Nickleby was being tracked. A Tail Of Two Cities was called for.

let us assume those pantsa his are so flappy cos he is storin' burgers an' buns in there, along with mebbe a few squirtsa mayo

question is, how many burgers can he sell before he is outta meat?

he jus' passed some guy don't wanna buy, so how many blocks is this gonna take?

cos when he is done, he gotta go all the way back to fetch more burgers

so where is 'back'?

i gotta hope 'back' is home, cos if he has a van someplace, stashed with burgers, then he prolly oughta drive it around insteada wheelin' a grill

tellya, if he gotta push sumthin' round the streets, why not run with a lawnmower?

sunny day, he could make a killin'

all he gotta do is push his lawnmower back to his van periodically to empty out the cuttings

So you're saying we are all before two cables? You're a mystery man, Mr. Whitacre.

Some of your posts are hard enough to understand with normal-sized text. Not even going to try the tiny font size. Too difficult to make out for many of us older folks.

As for the question in the thread title... I might do business with him, but it likely wouldn't involve buying food from a barrel on a shopping cart unless I knew and trusted him. Props to him for his ingenuity though.

now, I can combine bein' dead with an opaqueness infused with clarity.

it is not my intention to make alla the "old folks" squint, though i am bound to say it makes for a more productive oracular sinew workout than throwin' eyeballs out on stalks.

i tried that once, an' it did not work out.

the manual said to push real hard from under both sockets, like you were tryin' to birth triplets alongside clearin' badly blocked bowels.

so that is what I did -- an' i nearly punched a coupla holes in my monitor.

thing is, eyeball stalks are not muscular, they are just conduits for blood vessels an' nerves.

only reason you'd want them out is to clean behind the retina because it gets all dusty back there like behind wardrobes an' sh*t -- an' for that, you either gotta do one eyeball at a time (so you can see the one with the other) or visit an eyeball specialist to get 'em cleaned up with a buncha equipment (in which case, you don't need the triplet/bowel grunto expulsion instructions cos those eyeball guys got sucko goggles they can use to extract both eyes at once while you lie back an' listen to some relaxin' music).

conclusion?

manual i downloaded was clearly a fake.

seems there was a scam a while back targetin' fitness clubs.

weirdo hackers were droppin' fake links to the manual onto cellphones, an' anyone downloaded it an' checked in with the workout got their shoes stolen.

anyways, sure took a while to pop evrythin' back into place, kinda like feedin' a paira worms through wormholes while goin' all cross-eyed, but i guess it coulda been worse.

if my eyeballs had burst, i mighta shorted my monitor with a ballistic dual pearlo of aqueous humor.

that woulda maximised my capacity for opacity, tellya.

another thing about the burger guy I figured is that if he got himself a hoverboard he could mebbe get around quicker.

i wanna help him; he is an entreprenoor.

  LOL! It's not like one can just pick up the phone and order them with half pepperoni or something.
  
  The idea is that there's a pretty short window of viability time between the donor's death and the recipient's surgery. I got the impression that they leaned toward younger (and likely healthier) donors, which meant that the deaths tended to be more violent. Typically I'd arrive at the surgical center at 4am the next day for a 4:30 delivery, and the only other car in the parking lot would be the recipient and their family member.
  Them: "I'm here to get a new pair of eyes!"
  
  Me: "Yep! And here they are!"
  
  Thanks

  I did that too when I was a courier. Not just eyeballs, but blood, tissue, limbs, a couple of dog heads for rabies tests. One time the cooler would not close all the way- it was kinda creepy.

I've seen one year olds eat food off the floor, so I guess I would. LOL

I hope the guy does well and progresses to a food cart...

Denver has Bruce Randolph Avenue, a major arterial street
re-named after "Daddy Bruce", who started out much like the
guy in the OP and progressed to a little restaurant. He became
known for free to the public Thanksgiving meals.

I think he is a very hard working man with some good creativity. He learns how to adapt himself to the situations and can survive easily. But, I would pass on this as when it comes to hygiene I don't even listen to myself. One should not compromise health at any circumstances.
