A surprising amount was overlap with both Creative Burnout regular Heart Gear and personal favourite Soara of the House of Monsters. Like Soara it is bombastic and fantastical on household topic.  Like Heart Gear it is a road trip of two people (one knowledgeable human and the other a dumb superhuman) across an arid wasteland in the search of meaning. But Crazy Food Truck unfortunately lacks the panache to stand out. 

Baring a few action scenes and comedy beats the series never commits to anything. The cooking elements are extremely limited, both in the recipes presented and barely touching on the joy of  a good meal. The food truck drifting across the wastelands looking for customers never serves clients or aids them through the culinary arts. Arisa might enjoy Gordon’s meals as her drives his new mysterious and powerful partner around. But they never extend it to anyone else.

Problems are resolved exclusively through the main duo’s capacity for violence. And attempts to find hidden depths to them fall victim to either the author’s indecisiveness or haggard pacing. Faults that becomes incredible obvious the more you read and realise that Gordon’s flashback stories to his military past highlight the four people who shaped his current life as a cook very conspicuously stop talking about the fourth person because that was too much to handle. Arisa taking her shirt off is not enough to distract you from how Gordon’s past and the wider cast is actually becoming less detailed as it is explored further. Without any special quality of its own Crazy Food Truck unfortunately becomes a bland and unsatisfactory experiment that highlights how others have achieved far more with the same ingredients. Avoid.
