One of the mecha's legs is just shut up and dusty, packed full of old hoarder poo poo. Now and then the pilot's son comes around, opens it up, and looks hopeless. He'd just as soon be done with this.

I don't like it when you're watching me eat.
I appreciate that the colors are muted, like there's a layer of dust over the entire mecha.

I think it's delicious but in general I feel like there's a lot of food that wasn't so popular before smartphones and social media were invented and I can't help but feel there's a connection.

Why did street food never take off outside Asia the way it has there?

I imagine early adoption of food safety laws and also western cuisine / ingredients in general played a part in stifling or hindering the industry.

That being said, there is definitely a bustling street food industry it just doesn’t perhaps always take the literal look you expect vis-a-vis Asian vendors.

Yeah food trucks are becoming more and more a thing in cities due to outrageous rents. Hell they even get together in big groups near office parks like some kind of mobile food court.

One part of it is that, most of the popular street food cultures you talk of (Japan, Korea, Vietnam) have one thing in common. The USA bombed them to rubble. Most of the foods cooked were the direct result of not having buildings to cook out of/using materials like spam and wheat from food aid in street kitchens. Ramen, sushi, different types of street pancakes (pajeon, okonomi yaki), spam got their popularity boosted due to the fact they were the most readily available foods.

Relative cost of labor is also a big part. If labor is cheap, it's easier to make running a food cart match what you could earn with a different job. And cheap labor makes the price difference between buying cooked food and ingredients smaller, so there's a bigger market of people routinely eating out.
