ECHS 4th-year culinary arts students held a friendly food truck wars competition to prepare for opening their real-life food truck, The Bird Feeder, at the EC vs. Bay City football game on October 16th! Students had to develop a food truck concept, write a modified business plan, create menus and pricing, and choose one menu item to offer as a tasting sample to the ECISD staff who came to judge.
