Food Trucks at the Equestrian Center Update: Demand Outpaced Supply!

Folks wait patiently in socially-distanced lines, to order food from one of three food trucks that came out for Beulah's opening evening of food trucks at the Equestrian Center.

I stopped by the Escambia County Equestrian Center yesterday after work.  I wanted to buy food to support the restaurants that sent trucks.  Lots of folks were in the parking lot.

It was day one of a community initiative to bring food trucks out to Beulah--an idea that garnered much support online on facebook and on my blog post regarding this topic last week.

One truck, the "Whacked-Out Wiener" had at least 15-18 people in line, socially distanced.  The other truck had no line, it was the Chic-Fil-A truck.  I went up and spoke to the attendant.

"So how did it go today" I asked.  He replied  "We didn't get out here until 4:15--and we sold out of all of our sandwiches by 5:00PM--Sold out!"  He continued.."We are waiting right now for more sandwiches from out store--they are bringing them to us"

As I stepped back from his truck, sure enough the re-supply came.  When it did, folks flooded his truck and a line quickly formed.

During lunch, I'm told there were two trucks, a Snow-Cone truck and the "Whacked-out Wiener."  Apparently, according to some who have weighed-in---there were customers but no food!"  Demand outstripped supply!

I think as this initiative develops and word spreads among the truck operators--more trucks will come out--and the supply will meet demand and things will balance out--and this will be good for everyone.

For the rest of this week--see the line-up BELOW-- listing the types of food that will be available and at what times as well as the contact:
