Why does Kamloops love food trucks so much?
KAMLOOPS — Last week brought us one of those stories that would be absolutely laughable to visitors looking at Kamloops from anywhere else.
Hundreds and hundreds of people went all the way out to an open field near the airport simply to eat food prepared not in a restaurant or on an outdoor barbecue, but in a tin can on wheels.
Food truck operators, so taken for granted elsewhere in the world, were treated like rock stars at a charity event meant to raise money for the Kamloops Therapeutic Riding Association.
