The Old Dog Presents: The Weird Vending Machine Contest!
"Come on Old Dog, Where did you get such a strange idea for a contest?"
I'm glad that you asked! Last month while walking in the old town of Cernobbio Italy on the lake of Como I passed by a vending machine. Among the things in it was mozzarella cheese!
Maybe it's a cultural thing but that struck me as weird!!! How much mozzarella are these people running out of after the grocery stores have closed?
Don't Believe Me? See For Yourself!
There it is in all its glory..mozzarella! Right above the eggs? Yes, there are emergency vending machine eggs too!
Here's a bigger view of this amazing machine with its magic mozzarella!
Check out the hand written sign! Buyer beware because the machine doesn't give change or as they put it: "Doesn't Give The Rest of The Money!" Since the mozzarella costs 1.90 I suppose that they get a 10 cent tip every time!
Now It's Your Turn! Here's What We're Looking For
In this contest I want to see weird looking vending machines or vending machines that sell weird things! Yes I know. This is going to be tough but a lot of fun!

The Grief Machine
This definitely qualifies as weird!
Kinda suits you then, right?
What is it for? To get something you will regret?
Je ne regrette rien :-)
Funny pictures :-D
You're right!
Interesting contest and funny. I think we all have fun :)
I hope so!
I don't think this is popular over here yet, because I have not seen anything like that.
Maybe garri or fufu?
In Slovenian mountains, it's a custom that when we reach the summit we take a shot of moonshine.
I find this moonshine atm last year.
Here are the mechanics. It cost 1 euro per shot on a voluntary basis.
The funny part is that the police officer in retirement built this as locals told me.
This is a great entry. Thanks!
I doubt we have them. It is years ago I saw one in front of a bakery selling bread. Most machines are gone perhaps where @fitinfunfood lives or @gertu or @skramatters? 🤔
Cool. We had fresh made pizza vending machines here a few years ago but they’re all gone!
I have seen many types of vendor machines here in Bangkok but this one made my day a cool fresh orange juice vendor machine that will give you a cup of pure fresh orange juice while your watching a small TV screen also mounted into the vendor machine telling you were the oranges are grown and how good pure fresh orange juice is for you now that is a cool vendor machine and i call tell you it was one awesome tasting orange juice 👍
Entry No #1
Yummy!
It was really yummy and natural 👍
I really wanted to join this contest. It's fun to go on a weird-vending-machine-hunting. The only problem is that vending machines aren't popular where I'm from.
Next time!
Bummer, the salmon vending machine that was near my place is gone.
I guess nobody interested in buying frozen salmon from the machine.
I have to dig this from my phone. :-)
Very weird but not surprised if it didn't attract enough customers!
Yes, I wasn't surprise it went but it was quite short time there. Less than a few months.
Ohhhh....there is going to be some real weird stuff turning up in the post i can't wait i'm going to love this one....lol 🤣
I hope that you find something!
I will be doing my best....Cheers 👍
