The ill-fated company once attempted to automate the pizza delivery process. Now, it's shutting down.

    Kind of like the Japanese vending machines. I think those kind of thing are awesome (and practical if you need a fast bite) and would love to see them in America more.

      Vending machines like this are reliant on foot traffic. It would be viable in some American cities, but the majority of the country is car dependent.

        Of course we would have to fix that major issue with all of America. Car centric cities are simply terrible.

      I’m in Tokyo right now and got 100% real orange juice squeezed in a vending machine. Every five seconds I just go “man America fucking SUCKS”

        How different is that than buying 100% fruit juice from the supermarket? Like does it really taste different.
