Nope - they are all over Japan and I found them in Ohio and Nebraska - but no mention of them anywhere in England Got to page 50 on google and was getting bogged down in food health laws, so gave up!Not one eggsample! P.S. the pic on my previous post is now working! Wouldn't let me direct link, so had to host it. Don't tell on me eh? I don't want carton off to prison.

I can clearly remember milk vending machines(6d/carton) and always icey cold.Later there were machines which dispensed frozen triangles of orange juice,(Jubilees?) and of course chocolate bars in railway stations.

Come to think of it I can remember those milk venders too,and yes, it was very cold. Are we missing something from the past here? Are our lives too cluttered with the wrong gizmos? All I want for christmas is a chicken in a tin, preferably alive, so I can have my own eggmatic module........or something like that!
