Who's trying to shut down your taco trucks? Kyle Sweetland joins the podcast to discuss the regulation of food trucks and his recent report "Food Truck Truth". We talk about the history of food trucks, whether or not food trucks harm brick and mortar restaurants, and what many cities are doing to try to shut down and stop food trucks. What does the evidence say, and what should we do with food truck regulations? Should we banish mobile food businesses, or have taco trucks on every corner?
