Food trucks have become a big part of our modern food culture. However, from a regulatory perspective, they present unique challenges for environmental health departments. From the rate of un-permitted vendors, to keeping up with trucks and being able to find them quickly when you need to inspect them, the need for better communication, tools, and cooperation with this growing part of the food service industry has never been more pressing.In this episode we talk to Matt Gellar; founder of the national food truck association, Best Food Truck and Revolution Carts.Matt's passion for food trucks has led him to partner with health departments to make safe, legal, permitted, mobile vending more broadly available. We also discuss his new tools that helps health departments find where food trucks are quickly and easily when it's time for inspection.You can reach Matt at:
