Not only to I have a personal preference for fruits and veggies over cookies but the truck takes space other vendors (read other businesses) could occupy. So by all means lets have food trucks but maybe there could be some sort of schedule worked out so they did not impact the farmer's market quite so much (i.e., it is a truck so it could presumablly move to the street for a period of time).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-61799750791145643532011-12-01T09:03:49.354-08:002011-12-01T09:03:49.354-08:00I second the motion on a neighborhood "Off th...I second the motion on a neighborhood "Off the Grid" -- fill the void in our culinary wasteland.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-65466933786089030082011-11-30T19:43:13.362-08:002011-11-30T19:43:13.362-08:00Noe Valley Blog commenters are a bunch of whiny ba...Noe Valley Blog commenters are a bunch of whiny babies. Your idea of local has to be within blocks of the truck? That is horribly stupid.<br /><br />You're upset that its taking away cookie business from a coffee shop? That is moronic.<br /><br />You think a food truck is that bad for the environment that you have to come one here and whine about it? What else do you complain about? That pumping bike tires is taking all of our good clean air?<br /><br />Open more businesses! Open more small businesses! Open more interesting and different businesses!

Honestly, do we really need any more banks, insurance co's, nail salons, ugly clothing stores, and useless gift shops?<br /><br />Compared to other neighborhoods Noe is extremely lacking in new and interesting restaurants. <br /><br />Yes, there are lots of restaurants, but you'd be kidding yourself if you thought more than maybe 10% of them were worth repeat visits! Sorry, but I don't want to eat greasy slop at Joe's or get food poisoning from the crap Taqueria across from Whole Foods. <br /><br />I suggest all the great food trucks of SF move into the vacant parking lot every night of the week and setup our own neighborhood "Off The Grid" event. That would make me sooo happy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-39839220849639032252011-11-30T09:59:37.436-08:002011-11-30T09:59:37.436-08:00ok, just read even further. it looks like they/she...ok, just read even further. it looks like they/she got all the permits so i'll wait to see how that plays out.<br />While i'm still curious about all of the local ingredients, i am going to reserve judgment till I try them out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-25794344816064199542011-11-30T09:48:52.212-08:002011-11-30T09:48:52.212-08:00Nothing against food trucks in general, but this o...Nothing against food trucks in general, but this one doesn't really strike me as all that good. And agree that if it's affecting a local business a lot, then that's not a great match. However, reading up on the web about the licensing process, it looks like there are rules in place to help those local businesses.<br />Lastly, is it me or are others getting tired of the 'eco' claims? i mean, if you believe in zero waste, then why is a massive truck delivering cookies. And mostly-local ingredients...is milk and chocolate chips coming from Poterero or something?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-55000775827957545162011-11-30T09:48:25.083-08:002011-11-30T09:48:25.083-08:00BTW,

If that extends to during the market, I also consider a cookie truck an underutilisation of the limited space on Saturday AM.<br /><br />The rest of the week, the lot itself is underutilised, so the primary issue is if the business is appropriate for the neighborhood. <br /><br />I wonder - why is the finger pointed at Cookie Time?
