Free Food in San Diego

Of course this food is not literally free, but any food that tastes remarkably good and costs less than $6.00 qualifies for the free food list. For example, a typical taco shop would not qualify because the food is not remarkable. Also, an expensive restaurant may qualify if some menu items are free.
