I bought a granola bar that ants had burrowed through the packaging into the food before.

These are also chilled so why not if someone wants some Coca Cola and cottage cheese.

Sure but you gotta rotate these products and take out the expired ones, in a grocery store that's fine since you're always checking it but a vending machine that might get restocked only a few times a month???

[–] RejZoR@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What makes you think they get restocked that rarely? We had cooled vending machines at work that were restocked every 2-3 days. They didn't have cottage cheese, but they did have sandwiches. Which usually have shorter eypiration than factory packed cottage cheese.

Really? Well I stand corrected then, I've never seen a cooled vending machine before and I just assumed otherwise

[–] RejZoR@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 week ago

I've actually not seen one that wasn't cooled in my country. All that have drinks are cooled even if they have candies inside. I mean, warm fizzy drinks like Coca Cola are pretty yuck so they are cooled automatically because of that.

It does appear to be refrigerated, but still...

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I was thinking the same thing, that this is likely a refrigerated machine.

They usually have these at rest stops on highways in America, pretty convenient for road trips and such and I trust the state to actually keep them properly stocked.

It's mainly for the truckers that have to sleep there

As if cottage cheese wasn’t already nauseating enough

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

Yeah I passed food safety class, why do you ask?
