Running a food truck looks simple from the outside.
It isn’t.
In this short clip from The More You Know, The Better It Tastes, Matt Zdeb of The Baked Bird explains why the cooking itself is actually the easiest part of food truck life—and why everything else is what wears you down.
He compares it to camping: packing everything down, cramming it into a small space, securing every single item, and hoping nothing shifts when you’re on the road. Miss one latch or one strap, and you don’t find out until you hear something crash behind you while pulling away.
That moment—the pause, the deep breath, and wondering what kind of mess you’re about to open the door to—is a reality most people never see when they romanticize food trucks.
This clip highlights the true operational load of food trucking:
• Constant setup and breakdown
• Equipment that must be secured perfectly every time
• Stress that starts before you ever cook a single order
• Problems that follow you from location to location
Matt’s point is clear: the food is the part chefs know how to do. The real challenge is everything wrapped around it—the logistics, maintenance, transport, and mental toll of never having a fixed space.
For aspiring food truck owners, this is an honest look behind the scenes.
For diners, it’s a reminder of how much work goes into showing up at all.
