From crispy California avocado tacos sprinkled with sesame seeds to coconut-raspberry cupcakes and espresso, the food-truck revolution has delightfully messed with American food and culture.
Now, an indelicate -- perhaps hilarious -- line has been crossed. Are we ready for mobile hot dogs served from the final rest stop, the clutches of death, the lair of vampires? The ghoulish geniuses behind a bit of mobile madness -- Dead Dogs Ltd. -- believe we are.

I think that this is morbid and cool at the same time. So I guess Yes I would eat from them.

I don't care if they're served to me from an outhouse, as long as they're delicious.

One used to say: *Only in America*.
Today, I am glad, people come up with things like this.
Shows entrepreneurship, and according to the *reviews*, not half bad food !!!

Heck, when they packaged rocks, as *pet-rocks* and even sold them, why not this twist on roadside food ?

Bravo to those who started this !

Why does everybody have such psychotic hangups about where their food has been? Why on earth would anybody even think about the original purpose of some contrivance that is employed in their food preparation?

Matter of associations ... ?

I you would get your meal served in a *bedpan*, and you would not be sure it was clean or brand new, you would probably say, no way Jose ... ?

I love the idea. I can see it thriving somewhere like Boston, maybe down in Faneuil Hall or Harvard Square in Cambridge.

Not so much in retiree-centric areas, like parts of Florida.
