- ShrimpCrackers, on 10/12/2007, -2/+33Having worked in the high-tech vending machine industry... pizza vending machines been around for more than 5 years. All it does is quick-bake or microwave a frozen pizza. It doesn't actually create one like your local pizza shop.
But this stuff has been selling poorly by various companies because they all taste like utter crap. Unless you want to wait 2 full minutes for high-school cafeteria pizza for $5-$7. (Trust me results will NOT look anything near like what it claims on that website). Plus the high overhead and energy use by these machines makes it almost impossible for them to lower prices below $5 a pie. Trust me, even after they lowered the price to $3, $2, you would NOT buy it. Its that bad.
In Japan you can get cooked Gyu-Don (Meat with Rice) that actually tastes pretty good. Like this machine its just microwaved in the vending machine before its popped out. - Wezlanator, on 10/12/2007, -3/+32This goes on my "Cool ***** To Put In My Room" list.
- imnojezus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+28I bet it tastes exactly as good as it sounds.
- betacmag4u, on 10/12/2007, -1/+21Do they have a home model?
- diktator279, on 10/12/2007, -3/+22next will be vending machines that dispense vending machines
- sonaro, on 10/12/2007, -2/+21It's really just a giant microwave with Ellios inside. But what else does one need at 4am with 1 eye open?

- caliyankee, on 10/12/2007, -5/+20As a born-and-bred New Yorker, I need to express my outrage at this machine. I've seen a lot in my years, and I thought California Pizza Kitchen was an abomination to nature, but whatever substance comes out of this vending machine is NOT pizza. Pizza is an art form. The perfect slice at the perfect time with the perfect company rivals the beauty of the Sistine Chapel. A man can spend his entire life trying to make the perfect Neapolitan pizza; the one like he had when he was a kid and his parents took him to Patsy's and told him about Frank Sinatra for the first time. I'm an Irish boy from Brooklyn, but even I know that pizza is made by a fat Italian guy from the neighborhood who's son you play Little League with. Not a pepsi machine.
Go ahead bridge & tunnel people, dig me down. But if you've ever had a real slice, fuhgettaboudit... - Klowner, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13when you shake the ipod vending machine, it emits dancing silhouettes that strangle you to death with mysterious white cords
- Chingmiester, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13IT made it to the front page because people don't always want to read about new Windows Vista crap, or how much the RIAA sucks. Diggers like weird ***** such as pizza vending machines or Jesus using Wikipedia.

Sleep perhaps? - gotcheaprice, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Man, hope the pizza doesn't taste as bad as those used panties I had in Japan
- dvsbastard, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14Still doesn't beat the convenience of buying Soiled Japanese Panties on the go...

- Chingmiester, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12Wonderpizza! The food of the future!
"***** off I'm eating" - nerd05, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7If you get turned on by good grammar I'd hate to see you in English class.
- Dumbledorito, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9I recall a show demoing some ideas for vending machines. One was a machine designed to dispense fresh hot french fries.
You don't want to know what the oil looked like after just a couple of hours of use. - itchyfeet, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Put one of these outside a place where drunk people congregate (a bar or pub) and you'd make a fortune.
"Whaaaowww.. whasshhat? Peeeetttzzaaa!! Eeeeyeeaarrrgggh wherezamoneego!? *****.. " - buckeye45, on 10/12/2007, -8/+14now just give me my cocaine vending machine.
- Kronos6948, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I doubt it would be a haven for bugs for 2 reasons...
One side is a freezer where it's too cold for the bugs, the other side is a toaster oven...too hot for bugs. - CircleFusion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5If every pizza were like NY pizza, then NY pizza would no longer be special. You should be praising this machine for maintaining the value of the perfect slice of NY pizza. :-)
(or chicago pizza) - jamez, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5The correct word is vendors.
On the record:
Good grammar and spelling are a turn-on.
I am very turned off. - ElMoselYEE, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5lol i get it, it's an oxymoron.
- weister42, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Pizza vending machine + soda vending machine sitting together next to a liquor store = a college student's dream come true.
- radda, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5There's a machine at a movie theater here that does french fries, chicken fingers, and all sorts of food like that.
Spoiler: there's a microwave inside. This one might have some kinda Quizno's like baker in in though. - Chingmiester, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5@ SonicAD
That probably isn't too good for your health, as each pizza* is about 3 servings and it's 280 calories per serving. That makes 1680 calories a day. Your massive pizza consumption may kill you before you kill to eat a vending pizza.
* That is considering the pizza is pepperoni. The other various types of Tombstone pizza have more calories than that. - cremate, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Brooklyn people always have so much to say.
- DeFex, on 10/12/2007, -6/+10KFC need vending machines, they could chop up the rats, re-conglomerate the parts in to chicken like shapes, batter them and add 11 secret spices. vend food.
use motion detector to make sure humans are not around
drop crumbs to attract more rats.
catch rats with lightning fast robot arm.
make more food.
guy would only have to replenish the batter and spices. oil could be rendered from rats as well. - lewikee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4@chingmiester
1680 calories a day isn't bad per say. The average adult should consume 2000 calories a day. Technically, he could be losing weight on that diet. The problem isn't the number of calories as much as in what form the calories are ingested. Mostly saturated fat, that pizza diet is definitely going to deprive your body of the nutrition it needs. So yes, definitely unhealthy, but not because of the calories. - darthmojado, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4ahh, you must be a Dwarves fan.
- ChillHomie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"You need to try the pizza in Riomaggiore, Cinque Terre, just south of La Spezia.
All freshly picked / killed ingredients, a big jug of red wine and the sun setting over the Mediterranean."
I have had real Italian pizza, it tastes like cardboard. I gotta be honest I prefer Americanized pizza. Although I'm sure you think it tastes like *****. - Squishead, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4How fresh can this really be?
- TimDigg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3freshly made and vending machine, don't go together
- tektalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3You're making me crave pizzas real bad...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5There is nothing more sad than someone talking about how only THIER neighbood's food, or drink, or whatever, is the true kind. Seriously. Just sad.
- mandarin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2How do you know what ass tastes like?
- ChillHomie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2If you hit the buttons in the order 4,2,3,1 you can get a free pizza

continued: "If I'm buying a candybar in a store, a lot of times I will drop it just so it will achieve it's maximum flavor potential" - RedHerringHack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I would use it. Once.
- herro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2"it would have to be real ***** big!"
- dsthunder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2there is an italian midget in the machine?...
