* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Arisa is frequently naked, and even when she's clothed doesn't wear much. Since she's [[spoiler:an ArtificialHuman who EscapedFromTheLab]], she doesn't know or care about nudity taboos (plus, wearing less clothing in the desert makes sense, at least during the day).

InAWorld where most of the land has been turned into a vast desert by an apocalypse in the distant past, a lone food truck drives along from town to town. Its driver, a man with a mysterious past known only as Gordon, comes across a young woman sleeping naked in the middle of the road, swerving to avoid running her over. Her name is Arisa, and if there's one thing she loves to do, it's eat. The two travel together, with Gordon whipping up spectacular dishes and Arisa putting them away just as fast. But Arisa is wanted by Vald, a shadowy military organization, and they will stop at nothing to capture her!

''Crazy Food Truck'', written and illustrated by Rokurou Ogaki, was serialized on Shinchosha's ''Monthly Comic @Bunch'' manga website from July 2020 to December 2021. Creator/VizMedia licensed the series for English publication.

* ClarkKenting: Gordon "disguises" himself by wearing glasses and a bandana on his head. He doesn't even use a false name, which makes it easy for the military to discover who he is once he gets on their radar.
* EscapedFromTheLab: [[spoiler:Arisa]] escaped from Vald's "Doll" program.
* FakingTheDead: [[spoiler:Gordon]] faked his own death after an AssassinationAttempt which was foiled by [[spoiler:Kyle and Sarah]], but they told everyone it succeeded.

* RelationshipUpgrade: In the final chapter, [[spoiler:Gordon and Arisa]] kiss and [[LastMinuteHookup have sex for the first time]] in the food truck, right before [[spoiler:the military catches up to them]].

* StandardPostApocalypticSetting: The outback variant, where the entire world seems to have become a desert wasteland, with weird mutant animals and safe settlements few and far between.
* SuperStrength: Arisa can take down a 50-foot-tall squid with a single karate chop.
