My husband's in a club that has/ had always sold Fried Green Tomatoes at a local fair. They were good enough that people sought them out year after year.
Then the fair upped the price of their spot to $500. Then after covid reduced the length of the fair from 2 1/2 days to one day.
And the economics didn't work any longer.
The inventory that Pontchatula vendor would have to have ....how many dozen turkey legs and what do you do with the left overs? How do you keep them refrigerated ? Likewise the cheese steak? Heck of a menu, many small hole in the wall restaurants wouldn't have that diverse an offering.
