I honestly feel like this would be successful.

Hand pies.

>Rotating seasonal menu
>Served toasty hot
>Sweet and savory
>Carne and Veg

Now here's the trick, forget the food truck meet up shit where you compete with the other trucks in some parking lot. You sell the pies at a reasonable price, use a cart not a truck, and you get a vendor deal to do it right on a college campus...if not there then on the sidewalk right outside a major entrance to one.

How often were you running late to class, no time for a real breakfast. Or in-between classes no time to sit and eat. Snatch a hand pie on the go, wrapped to keep warm. It's like selling fancy hot pockets without the revolting sauce and excessive cheese.

Also work some nights catching the kids leaving clubs.

The cart means less overhead, the product is adaptable to ingredient availability, and everything can be prepared ahead of time.

Running a food truck costs money out the ass, but you ever think about how much cash that Mexican guy selling ghetto dogs outside the venue makes? What's his cost a propane tank and some Costco dogs?
