I love Coming here to get my fat fix. The fat Philippino and the Fat Cat are my 2 fave heros. Something about the BREAD is like CRACK. Soft, chewy and always fresh. The fries in the hero are addicting. They get smashed in the sandwich with whatever sauce u add in it(gyro, hot, ketchup) and I like to Pull them out as I eat it as a side. Fast service, there’s always A line. It’s by the library so there’s benches to sit and enjoy on a good day.

*cheap, fast, and delicious! *Must Try: Fat Moon. Bacon, Chicken Fingers, Eggs, Fries, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Mayo, and Ketchup stuffed into a fresh sandwich. *Man vs Food was here! He failed the challenge. *If you’re not into sandwiches, they also have Chicken and Rice, and tons of snacks. Linden’s cookies, anyone?

RU Hungry is always my go to spot for fat sandwiches. I’m always shocked when the line is a mere 3 – 4 people and a neighboring trucks line wraps around the corner. Their sandwiches are amazing and they’re very accommodating. I love the Philly cheesesteak with peppers onions eggs and marinara. Dynamite. Some kid in line before me was short on his bill and the guy said«owe me next time.» Love the mom/pop feel. You can tell they real ly respect their customers and appreciate the food their making. Grat kate night spot. Five stars.

«RU Hungry» is the food truck right next to Alex library. You can call ahead and order– it will save you from waiting in line if there is one. They’ll tell you how long it will be, usually only 5 or 10 min. There are french fries *in* the wraps here. Yes, even in the grilled chicken ones. I need to try the salads.

So I ordered sandwiches to be delivered to our hotel for me and my friends. They said it would take 30 minutes with which I was ok. I sat in the hotel lobby the entire time since I had something to do. 45 minutes after we still dont have our food so I call the food truck back(not the driver), and they said the driver was on his way. It was a little later than expected but whatever. 70 minutes of waiting the driver still hasnt arrived. I call back, and they say the same thing. He is almost on his way. 90 minutes of waiting. I’m actually so mad right now, and of course they tell me the same thing over the phone. It wasnt until 2 hours after I had placed my order that the driver came into the lobby. He blamed me for not being at the lobby when he came to supposedly deliver my food which was a terrible lie because I was literally sitting in the lobby the entire time. After he is caught in this lie, he lies and says that he actually had been by «multiple» times already, tried calling me, but I didnt pick up. I could see from my phone history this wasnt true. Also, I had been calling the food truck multiple times, and they had called me back. We had been communicating the whole time, and not once did they ever say the driver had tried to call us. They had called him to ask about his location, and they had always apologized to me and said the food was coming soon. The driver got caught lying twice now. This whole time we’re having a heated argument in the middle of the lobby because the driver couldnt be an adult and take responsibility for his actions. Finally he demands a tip after I’ve waited 2 hours for my food. The sandwiches were cold. The driver was a lying, deflective, rude idiot who took no responsibility. The person taking the calls at the food truck had no idea what was going on and lied to me about the estimated time of arrival multiple times. Absolutely the worst service experience I have ever had in my life.

The food was excellent. I read a lot of reviews about this place not having halal meat, and I asked them, and they reassured me that the meat is halal if you request it. I give those guys a lot of credit for working in that truck during these 100+ degree days. Love that they’re outside of Alex. There seem to be no other food options close by that are open during the summer, so I really appreciated that I could eat and head back to the library without wasting too much time.

R U Hungry? Ys bt wn u x m n txt spk it knda pts m of my fd. An it mks m wt 2 fkn kik ur as u stpd pc o sht. Gtfo pls. Kthxbye. Oh hi! Sorry, didn’t see you there, reader! I was embroiled in an airing of grievances and an exchange of ideas with a popular nutrition outlet at the esteemed campus of the University of Rutgers in leafy New Brunswick in the marvellous state of New Jersey. Our discussions have led to an accord and we shall hitherto be working in tandem to better ths state of communications between our parties in future. I bid thee good day. What to get: Fat Darrell, Fat B**ch, Fat Anything. These are the only sandwiches in America whose names are more offensive than my reviews. What else to get: Fat, if you eat too many of them. Any other info: Yeah. The secret to the Universe is 42. For the novelty, price, legend and originality, it gets 5. Taste-wise? 4. So at first I mis-read the side of this truck and thought they were propositioning me. I thought it said«R U Horny?» I was like«always!» I was about to pull down my pants(as usual) when I noticed my mistake. That was a close call. I’ve been to the Grease Trucks 5 times. First was to see what all the fuss was about. I went to the wrong truck, it was decent. Then I found out that in fact, of the 5 trucks, a different one is the original and best. I returned for an encore and sought out«R U Hungry?» Well yes I was. I loved it. So after Dumpty fell off the wall, I went to the hospital to check on him. Everyone looked the same(covered in bandages) so asked a random guy in bandages«R U Dumpty?» It was. Apparently a bunch of the Kings men and horses had made his injuries worse by trying to fix them on the scene. As the Scots famously say, «I dinnae understand hae a horse can even try tae fix an injury wee lassie, horses cannae even shake yeer hand.» And they’d be right. The 3rd, 4th and 5th time I visited the Grease Trucks was to bring other people here. This isn’t the sort of food I crave(it’s very American and collegey, putting stuff like deep fried mozarella sticks and mac n cheese on subs), but it does taste good. So when I bring friends here(2 girls, 1 boy so far) they inevitably seem to really get off on it. On the sandwich I mean. Not on me. That usually comes later. So to speak. I ran into Pharell last week. I asked him«R U Happy?» He said that was the dumbest question he’d ever been asked. I was last here in Fall 2014 and I shared an «R U Hungry» sandwich with a model who lives in Cali. Not kidding! I wish I was. I ruined her diet. I just chatted her and she says we had the«Fat Beach» — with fries, chicken fingers, and all kinds of sauces. It was yummy. Really these are just over the top college-y subs. I should hate them. It shouldn’t work. And yet for the legacy, the legend, and just something original and unique about them, it does. I ran into an actress that looked like Holly Hunter here. I was like, «R U Holly?» She was like«say what?» I was like«R U Hunter?» She was like, «you’re a creep, my boyfriend is gonna kick your ass.» So I turned to the server and asked for«One Fat B**ch.» Needless to say I was then beaten up by some random guy. Idk why. Would I seek them out when in Jersey? No. I’d grab Mamoun’s or Ibby’s Falafel, I’d try some hot dogs, I’d go down to the Jersey Shore and get some Rita’s Custard. But would I enjoy one if anyone ever said«I wanna try that fat sandwich thing that Adam Richman tried in Jersey», yes of course I would. It’s a novelty and it’s a fun and enjoyable novelty. They’re pretty cheap and they’re kind of, sort of, somehow worth the hype. I saw one of the old Nixon aides with someone that looked like Kissinger. I said, «R U Henry?» It turned out to just be Mr. Ralph Montero from Piscataway. Oopsie. So next time someone asks you for a Fat B**ch, know that they may not be confessing their love of extremely curvy women with a mean streak(or men, as the case may be), but might actually just want a sandwich from Rutgers. The trucks are strewn all over the city now. The inferior alternatives are nearby. There may now be more than 5. They may be multiplying. I have contacted the CDC about this issue. They will get back to me. Right after they are finished playing Cards Against Humanity with the FEMA people. Which will inevitably end in an orgy. A femur may be a bone, but the CDC only give their bones to FEMA. Now you know. Oh and I think my baby mama just bought the wrong diapers. She’s supposed to get Huggies. They say«Luvs» on the side. Hold on. Let me ask the Diapers. «R U Huggies?» They’re not answering me. Damnit. Oh wait my phone is ringing. It’s a CM from NYC telling me I’m insane. «Yes. I’m sorry. Which C… but… Which CM are you? Don’t yell. Jando? Peter, is that you?» Wow, yell-fest. Let me ask again who it is. «R U Ruggy?» He hung up. Scary. Almost as scary as a NJ guy on NYC Unilocal Talk insulting and degrading women and pretending he’s been intimate with them.

I can see why Rutgers students love this truck. It’s cheap. It’s greasy. It’s fatty. It’s fast. All of these components make it the perfect candidate for drunk food. I’ve heard about the truck when I was in college(not Rutgers) and would have liked to try it. But then when I saw it on Man v. Food on the Travel Channel, I knew I had to try it. I even imagined myself taking the«Fat Sandwich Challenge», where you eat 5 fat sandwiches within 45 minutes and get your own customized fat sammie added to the menu. I must have been really hungry when I was watching the show, because I didn’t think that was that hard of a challenge. When it came time for me to actually eat ONE sandwich, I ate half and already started feeling pretty nauseous from all the grease. I had the fat Filipino — cheese steak, gyro, chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks, french fries, white sauce, and lettuce. It was good but I felt super unhealthy after eating a few bites. R U Hungry is probably the perfect place to go to during your college years when you DGAF about anything you put into your body. After college? Not so much. Side note — they have salads, which I didn’t understand… who is coming to the R U Hungry truck to get a salad??? Tip — there’s an extra charge if you use a credit card.

Pretty self explanatory… who doesn’t like a fat sandwich on occasion? I happened to be in the area for work and could not pass up a chance to indulge. I got the fat Conner(and it was only 6 bucks), which consisted of mozzarella sticks, French fries, chicken fingers, bacon, ketchup and honey mustard. So bad for you but so good at the same time. They have so many different options for fat sandwiches it was hard to pick one. My only complaint is they didn’t cut the sandwich in half. I was on the go and eating in the car and it was really hard to handle that bad boy. Other than that, I was a happy customer.

Its not like i am in new brunswick everyday, i had just got out the movies seeing fast & furious 7 at 1ish, i figured since i havent had a fat sandwich since my early 20s and they close at 2am i would go get me one! …seems more food have been added to the menu… go to love the many combos of things in one sandwich including french fries, cheese steak, chicken fingers, hot sauce, ketchup, white sauce, mozarella stick etc. List goes on… be creative if you want and they will make it for you… great friendly staff as well

Definitely lives up to the name of a fat sandwich. You will most definitely feel that way if/when you finish yours. I had the chicken finger fat cat. What is not to love? Grease on grease on grease. You can’t go wrong. Prices were surprisingly cheap for such a huge sandwich. If your hungry and craving grease you really can’t go wrong with this. If you’re in the NB area, it’s a must try at least once!

My husband has been raving about this place for quite some time. He would always tell me that if we ever found ourselves near Rutgers that we should go. Our daughter ended up competing at the Battle of the Barrios 2015 with her friends, last Saturday evening. FYI — They won! Go SJUPARE! Anyhow, we were starving afterwards and we dropped by. The kids and I stayed in the nice warm car, while my husband braved the cold to wait in line. He came back with 4 Fat Darrylls. Once for each of use. I wasn’t sure if I would like it, but after a few bites I was hooked! There is something in the sauce and the breading of the chicken that was so good, along with the stuffed fries all in one bite. It was a lot of sandwich to handle, it took two sittings for me to finish. I think we just may find more excuses to visit again.

I felt like getting a Fat Sandwich today since I haven’t had one in years(literally!). I ordered a cheesesteak with french fries and was not terribly impressed. I KNOW, its name did not start with«Fat», but I’m sure it had as many calories as any other fat sandwich. Bottom line: if you want a full belly without spending much time or money, then you’ve come to the right place. Also, R U Hungry is AMAZING after last call at the bars — just sayin’.

Seeing this place on Man vs Food I always wanted to try it. I managed to pass yesterday and stop for a Fat Sandwich. I was surprised to be greeted by a not-so-nice woman in a burka, I was expecting a fat greasy guy w a cigar in his mouth. Anyway, I ordered a chicken finger w let, tom, mayo & ketchup. I read the menu and boy do they have some crazy combos. My sandwich was made to order, when I got it, it was a huge sandwich and all for $ 8! Fresh Italian bread, let and tomato, typical frozen chicken fingers and fries and all shoved on the sandwich, you gotta love a messy sandwich. It was good and an experience.

I thought I added a review ages ago but I guess not. went here twice when I was stuck at Rutgers. Owner is nice. Had the fat Budda Cheeseburger, egg, pork roll, french fries, lettuce, mayo, ketchup I am not sure how this all worked together but it did and then some. Pork roll is actually pretty good.

Ventured out to try this sandwich and I find it interesting. Honestly, I wouldn’t come here unless I’m in the area. I think a big reason why people come here is because they get to say«fat bitch» when they place an order. But all sandwich is called«fat …» and there’s a reason to that. Everything fried is stuffed in one sandwich and it can get dried at times. I had the fat kushion and it had turkey bacon(they only serve turkey bacon), jalapeño, mozzarella stick and chicken finger topped with french fries. The sauce was a bit tangy. It was about a 5 ft long sandwich and cost about 6 – 7 bucks. If you are up for the challenge, be my guest and go for it. You make your own sandwich and have to eat 5 of them in 45 min. If you win you get to have your sandwich on the menu and I guess bragging rights, but good luck in losing those calories afterwards.

First I would like to start off with saying that I miss the old location and hope that Rutgers is able to find a better home for them after they have finished construction. Now, to the food. I have been coming to the Grease Trucks for quite a long time. I remember hearing g about them when I was a freshman in high school, sonething about getting a fat bitch from a greasy truck. At first I wasn’t even 100% sure they were talking about food. Maybe just some nasty hookers. I finally did get to go and I have loved it ever since. My first sandwich, like many, was the Fat Bitch.(On a side note, I remember when they could say that. Loudly. Scream it in fact.) It has cheese steak, chicken fingers, French fries and mozzarella sticks with ketchup. They had not yet started adding veggies to them. I took my first bite and was in love. I’ve been back many times but my regular has become the Fat Knight which is the same but with marinara sauce instead. The taste is great because it is exactly what you would expect. Filling junk food on a bun.
