This Belgian Vending Machine Pops Out Fresh Fries in 90 Seconds

Convenience is getting a little out of control.

First we had the Champagne Vending Machine in Berlin. Then we saw a Beer Vending Machine in Bulgaria. I’m beginning to think that Europe is trying to get weird vending machines to be a thing.

Not to be outdone, Belgium is boasting the world’s first coin operated vending machine that cranks out fresh frites. Unlike other European on-demand-frite-machines, this Brussels based device are cooked up in hot beef fat vs. vegetable oil, making them a possible threat to street vendors.

Add your €2.50 (aka $3.36) to the machine and in a quick 90 seconds you’ll have hot frites served in a paper cup, accompanied by a fork and topped with your choice of mayonnaise or ketchup. We just have one minor hang-up: the triple filter system inside the machine was designed to cut the sweet smell of potatoes frying. C’mon now, guys, where’s the fun in that?
