On Wednesday the third annual Burger Showdown was held by the Food Bank of Northern Nevada and with Feed the Camel.

11 food trucks competed for the top spot and the bragging rights and money that came with it.

"It's a really fun event," said Jocelyn Lantrip, the Director of Marketing for the Food Bank of Northern Nevada. "The best part is people who attend are also the judges for the people's choice voting award and that's worth another $500 so it really does mean something when you come in and try the burgers and vote with the dollar."

The entire prize pool that can be won is $1,500 total.

Each dollar donated in order to vote for people's choice goes towards the FBNN and equals 3 meals. Last year they raised $1,000 which was 3,000 meals donated.

They say no matter how much or little they make it makes a difference.

The FBNN says that's why September being Hunger Action Month is so important.

"We raised around 1,000 dollars so not giant money," said Lantrip. "But every single action for hunger action month makes a difference so every can of tuna for the run on tuna, every dollar in this burger showdown all adds up to helping people who are facing hunger every single day."

She adds "Hunger Action Month is all about bringing awareness to the issue of hunger in a time that isn't November and December because hunger is something our community is facing all throughout the year, so it's really important to get the community involved other months."

This year judge's choice was Bone Appetit and people's choice was 775 Eats.

Last year 775 Eats won and Nola Sliders got second.

"This is a fun way to get involved in Hunger Action Month," said Lantrip."Come down eat a burger, maybe vote for your favorite, but there are a lot of ways to get involved this month. You can go to our website, FBBN.org, you can participate in our virtual food drive run on tuna maybe volunteer session if you haven't done that before it all adds up and makes a difference."
