According to her, the other vendor had a problem with her relative buying food from them, even though they\u2019re competitors. Now, she\u2019s speaking out about what she experienced and why it should have never happened.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Food truck owner @tinyhotcakesnj was serving food from her food truck recently. Suddenly, another food truck owner walked over and confronted her. She tearfully tells her audience that a food truck owner walked up to her truck and \u201cthreatened me to fight her.\u201d The owner asked her to come out of her truck and physically fight her. Why? As the owner of Tiny Hot Cakes Caf\u00e9 says, it\u2019s because her cousin went to this woman\u2019s food truck to support her business. Apparently, the owner thought they were scoping out her business or trying to intimidate her by purchasing from her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a weird turn of events, the vendor verbally berated this food truck owner. Confused, she tries to tell the food truck owner that her cousin saw the food truck and thought her food looked good. That\u2019s why she went there to make a purchase. This food truck owner says she just wanted to help \u201csupport\u201d the other owner. She adds, \u201cI\u2019m not hating \u2018cause you\u2019re there.\u201d She says she\u2019s been nothing but \u201ccordial\u201d toward the other owner who shares customers in the same area as her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the end, this food truck owner decided to take the higher ground and not engage with this woman. She states, \u201cI don\u2019t want to lose my spot over a fight with someone. I don\u2019t want to lose the money I\u2019m making over a fight.\u201d She cries as she tells her audience that she doesn\u2019t understand why the other food truck owner couldn\u2019t just have a conversation with her and resorted to being mean to her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.diningandcooking.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Semi-truck-parked-at-gas-station-at-night.jpg\" alt=\"\u2018That Was an Expensive \u201cMake Liberals Cry\u201d Vote\u2019: $1,139 Illinois Truck Fuel Receipt Sparks Political Debate\" loading=\"lazy\" fetchpriority=\"low\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The video immediately garnered support and reactions from commenters.
