foodtruckskillkids.jpgFood trucks: revolutionaries in dining or manipulative jerks fattening our children? According to the Bay Citizen, "junk food trucks" are undercutting the healthy lunches at the Novato Unified School District in California by selling things like Cheetos and Coca-Cola while parked outside the school.
