Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is - Support Vegetarian Friendly Restaurants

I'm feeling a little like Andy Rooney this week. (RIP) Ranting about things that might be insignificant to other people but tend to bother me.

But anyway...

I've been a big supporter of Cleveland food trucks since the day Dim and Den Sum rolled into a field near where I work.  Chef Hodgeson has been more than accommodating to vegans and vegetarians (despite expressing his love for butchering pigs on The Great Food Truck Race) and frequently offers vegan and vegetarian options on both of his trucks.  Many other trucks have followed suit, and I'm always happy to get to try out inventive vegan and vegetarian grub on my lunch hour.  Some trucks are more hesitant about providing vegetarian options.  And I get it.  Trucks are small.  Some truck operators are afraid vegetarian food won't sell.  But I think the business savvy food truck owners "get" it.  If you build it, they will come.  Offer up vegan and vegetarian food, and the vegans and vegetarians will come to you.

There's one truck in particular - The Nosh Box - that makes frequent trips to my workplace.  A workplace full of vegans and vegetarians.  They occasionally bring vegetarian food, but I like to nicely ask them before they head to where I work - via Facebook - if they can bring something for my brethren.  Sometimes they say no.  Sometimes they say they can make accommodations.  An I thought that was fine until I saw a snarky post that they made the other night on Facebook.
