The Name

There are some non-internet geeks out there that don’t know what the term “nom nom” means.  As defined by Urban Dictionary, “nom nom” or “om nom nom” means:

“An onomatopoeical adjective based on the sound emitted when something is “oh so tasty” (either through hunger or flavorological value) that one gnaws through it without regard to cleanliness or etiquette. This sort of ravenous eating will often result in an “om nom nom nom” noise being emitted from the eater.”

The term “nom nom” was made popular through a wide number of funny pictures, often featuring cute animals, munching on some food.  Here are two examples:

So when it came to coming up with a name for our new truck, “nom nom truck” seemed perfect!  Our food is going to be so tasty that everyone will just gobble it up without regard to cleanliness or etiquette!  Sounds like a good name to us!
