Hello Kitty Fans Flock To 1-Day Only Food Truck

ROSS TOWNSHIP (KDKA) -- Hello Kitty fans flocked to Ross Park Mall on Saturday morning to stop by a special one-day-only food truck.

The Hello Kitty Cafe food trucks have been touring the country since 2015, stopping in cities for just one day to sell treats and merchandise.

Lines stretched from the Cheesecake Factory down to Macy's as one of these special trucks made its first appearance in the Pittsburgh area.
