Abstract
Street food is a major source of income for many vendors and their families. Indeed, strong evidence suggests that street food vending is one of the main livelihoods of those in the informal sector of South Africa. Zandile Mchiza et al. investigate what people buy on the streets of Cape Town and surrounding areas.-
