Watch Kim From the Treats Truck Use Her VISA Card

Have you heard the Treats Truck featured in radio ads for Visa? Well now they have video versions online. I felt a little dirty watching a stupid ad for a credit card company, but it was worth it to see little Kim loading giant bags of supplies onto a dolly. She’s a one [...]

Treats Truck and Miss Softee Team Up to Make Ultimate Ice Cream Sandwich

Ask and ye shall receive!!! Miss Softee (who we profiled on Tuesday, from the Queen Frostine crew) has teamed up with the Treats Truck to create an ice cream sandwich!

Mister Softee + Treats Truck Could = Delicious Ice Cream Sandwich

The Adorable Side of Midtown Lunch’ing

What would we do without the precious Blondie and Brownie, who today have unearthed the cutesy side of Midtown Lunch’ing that few of us would dare trek into. I suppose I could see myself buying some of these Treats Truck valentine’s day cookies for my wife, but eating at McDonald’s for a Hello Kitty Watch? I [...]

Midtown Snapshots: Saddest Thing I’ve Ever Seen

Two chocolate chip cookies with nuts from the Treats Truck lying face down on 47th Street & 6th Ave.  How do I know they were from the Treats Truck?  Because I’m the one who dropped them… urgh, it’s so sad.  Lesson: Don’t carry a paper bag with cookies in a gloved hand on a super [...]
