All hail the good use of new technology. While walking through Griffith Uni's Nathan Campus recently I noticed a vending machine with an image of enticing looking hot chips on the front.
"Hot chips in 90 seconds! $4!" the writing on the machine told us. There was no word on the gravy component though, although on closer inspection I did notice another slot labelled sauce.
I'm not sure how it works though (although a quick google would probably clear that mystery up). Does it contain a deep fryer? Does it microwave the chips? Is it an alien technology I am not yet aware of?
Gross misuse of technology? Contributor to the obesity epidemic? Wonderous new invention that deserves an "Australian of the Year" nomination, even if the likely inventor isn't Australian? Sadly I couldn't find out that day because there was also an out of stock notice flashing on its screen.
The mystery will have to remain.
