Olympics promotions were everywhere this month. But one place we didn’t expect to find one was here: in an office building gai fan vending machine.
The RMB18.90 ‘Flavors of Rio’ set is actually a rather standard egg-and-tomatoes over rice. Still, for vending machine fare, we grant it a solid Not Bad. And by that we mean we’re pleasantly surprised it’s even edible.
The machine, a product by Fmeimei.com, has a flashy built-in touch screen menu. When we select our choice, it asks us if we’d like it heated (duh), then prompts us to wait for 90 seconds. It’s all very simple and smooth, and we’re even able to pay with WeChat by scanning a QR code at the end.
Is this the future? Maybe. Or maybe not.
