  • Keith Garrett went from selling drugs to selling tacos, burritos and quesadillas at his food truck, All Flavor, No Grease. Living on one of the most dangerous blocks in South L.A., Garrett began to bring together all flavors of people over his mother’s famous tacos. Now, he’s helped broker a ceasefire between rival gangs in the neighborhood, all through his signature Americanized-Mexican food. Sometimes, the best way to peace is through the stomach.

      +GamingTaylor ... actually some of the unhappiest people have tons of money. I believe it's the love for people that He puts into the food that is HIS awesome attitude. I can truly feel the spirit of God when watching this, I couldn't even imagine tasting it.
