Not Your Average Vending Machine
Everyone either loves or hates those candy and snack machines.They're a kid's fantasy stocked up with all sorts of bad for you treats .Dieters hate them because they're full of greasy chips and sugary treats.Luckily there is achange coming and hopefully to a vending machine near you.
Instead of cookies and chips ,pizza is now being served hot and fresh ,straight from the Lets Pizza vending machines in the UNited Kongdom.They're in malls and airports offering people a hot meal. ,The machine actually makes the dough ,kneads it, put the desired toppings on and then bakes it all in three minutes.It's an amazing concept soon to be here in the US? Not to be outdone Moet and Chandon has also created a vending machine for mini or pony bottles of it's signature champagne.This is a great concept and beats a can of soda any day.Right now the vending machine has been in the famed British department store,Selfridge's but it may be hitting clubs on both sides of the Atlantic.
On this side of the the Atlantic vending machine companies are getting on the health craze. Instead of candy bars, apples, oranges and pears are being rolled out.It's 's definitely a nice way to incorporate fruit into any diet.Chicago is bringing us the Veggie Vending machine, where fresh salads can be bought.There are all sorts from the antioxidant which is chock full of flax seeds, blackberries along with almonds and sprouts to the Mediterranean salad, loaded with Parmesan and Kalamata olives?Not to be outdone LA has come out with a burrito machine.Hopefully it's just as tasty and as relatively healthy as TacoBell's.Australia has also come put with a french fry vending machine, a neat snack but far from being as healthy as salad or apple.All of these hark back to the Automat, a restaurant that vended all sorts of dishes, from ham and cheese sandwiches to baked Mac and cheese.This is a concept that should come back.
Vending machines have grown up some.You can now get champagne and fries or a salad instead of a candy bar and a cola. It's a way towards quicker eating and a chance to get a decent meal.
