True confession: I find Twitter to be kind of a pain in th’ butt sometimes. Particularly when it comes to getting news from specific sources that update with relative infrequency — like food trucks. See, all the best food trucks advertise their schedules via Twitter, but for those of us with demanding stomachs and hefty tweet-feeds, it’s been hard to keep up. But now there’s an easier way for us to plan out those times during the week when we’ll throw dietetic caution to the wind and scarf down cheesesteaks, pancakes and kimchi tacos en masse.
Check it: Find LA Food Trucks allows the discerning consumer of mobile comestibles to learn, from a single page, where all his favorite food trucks will be at a given time. All the trucks’ Twitter feeds are updated here, from perennial favorite Kogi BBQ to my hometown representatives on the South Philly Experience to the relative newcomer Buttermilk Truck. No more scrolling through feeds! No more multiple tabs hanging open! There’s even a contact form so you can suggest a truck whose tweets aren’t represented. So get eating. Now you have no excuse.
