I don't know about you, but I love using vending machines. We have a vending machine in our building at Townsquare Media that I use just about every day.

I love getting little snacks after my radio show along with an ice cold beverage. Vending machines are easy to use and very convenient for just about everyone.

Speaking of vending machines, there is an automated pizza vending machine that opened less than a year ago in Ann Arbor and now it's shut down for good.

I wish I would have used that machine, because it was a pizza vending machine. Who thought that one up?

According to mlive.com:

Pizzas served by the vending machine are prepared off-site and loaded into the machine. Customers then use a touchscreen to order one of the 12-inch pizzas, which are cooked in the machine and dispensed in its box, a process which takes around three minutes. Pizzas cost between $9.99 and $13.

What a brilliant idea! That's what we need here in our building, a pizza vending machine!

Look at it this way, whenever you order a pizza, it usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes to get there, With a pizza vending machine, it's done in no time, just three minutes!

Mlive.com also tells us:

“PizzaForno has found alternate locations that better compliment the unique footprint PizzaForno brings to a market and we will be seen popping up on campuses, in hospitals and inside businesses that need alternate food options as hiring kitchen staff has become increasingly difficult,” the company said in its release. “Although our South University location is permanently closed, we will be back open in Ann Arbor very soon.”

These pizza vending machines are awesome. They serve over 10 different varieties of pizza, including pepperoni, and even BBQ chicken.

Can we please put a PizzaForno in our building as soon as possible? Thank you!
