Introducing an incredible surprise food vending machine. They have been in operation since the 1970s and are still working today. It reminds me of the retro and vintage Showa era. There are many vending machines everywhere in Japan. There are drink vending machines on the mountain pass and at the top of Mt. Fuji. The history of vending machines in Japan began in 1880. In the highway rest area, there are vending machines for grilled rice balls and yakisoba. The vending machine for Nissin’s cup noodles that existed at the company I worked for had its magnificent hot water supply visible through the sight glass.
I would like to introduce you to the retro and classic of Japan’s amazing vending machines.
Soup Noodle (Nissin Cup Noodle)
You may not be attracted to this little home vending machine. However, Japanese people have always been familiar with the vending machine for Nissin Cup Noodles since ancient times, and they have eaten it every day since they were young. It’s a dream that you can get the vending machine. But I don’t buy it though. (400 USD out of stock)
Still working retro vintage rare vending machines in West Japan.
These machines looks like not so sanitary but vending machines owner cleaning everyday also any foods are fresh. I think in the machine is cleaner than hand make. Owner could not continue around 50 years if it have problem about sanitary.
These vending machines operate 24 hours a day because no labor costs are required. These food vending machines are often installed on rural highways without restaurants. Target customers are long-distance drivers.
Traveling around these food retro vending machines has become a secret boom in Japan, as introduced on YouTube.
