Jaden Smith has opened up a free vegan food truck for the homeless population of Los Angeles, US.

The ‘I Love You’ truck opened this weekend in Skid Row – which has one of the largest homeless populations in the US.

The 21-year-old rapper wrote on Instagram: “@ILoveYouRestaurant Is A Movement That Is All About Giving People What They Deserve, Healthy, Vegan Food For Free. Today We Launched Our First One Day Food Truck Pop-Up in Downtown LA. Keep A Look Out Because This Is The First Of Many #JADENinc.”

The truck only offered food for one day on its initial launch, but is expected to be seen more and more often with many trucks hitting LA’s streets.

Smith shared a video on Monday which showed people queuing up and collecting food.

The Instagram page for the I Love You trucks showcases bowls full of delicious plant-based food.
