Back in October, we told you about Eat St. asking for video submissions from vendors to be on their program. The response has been excellent, and now it’s time for you to vote for your favorites.
Click through to find out which vendors submitted videos and how to vote for them. There are a few local vendors, so make sure to support our hometown favorites.
T H E P R I Z E
What will your support mean for a lucky, hard working street food vendor? The winning video may appear on TV and/or on the Eat St. website and will be given to the winner to use and distribute as they please (think: free professional video for advertising purposes!). The five videos with the highest number of votes from fans will win the Fan Favorite award and will be eligible to win the grand prize – an Eat St. segment starring their cart!
V O T I N G
Cast your votes from Jan. 5 to Jan. 31, 2012 for the vendor you would most like to see on the television show. You can vote once per day! Just be sure to register for an account on the contest website in order to cast your vote (this ensures your privacy and eliminates spam). Voting opened yesterday, January 5th.
