Pizza Vending Machines, Italy vs. US
Last year an Italian named Claudio Torghele announced his "Let's Pizza" vending machine that makes pizza from scratch in less than 3 minutes. That's some pretty fast food. The machines have been deployed in Europe and each pie runs about $6. Claudio device allows you to watch the entire process through glass: mixing and kneading the dough (yes, it starts with dry flour), spinning the dough into a flat disc, adding the sauce and selected toppings (4 pizza choices), and finally the cooking.
More recently a US company announced their "La Pizza Presto" pizza vending machine. This version slides a pre-prepared pizza out of box and under a heating lamp, then slides it back into the box and presents it to the vendee.
Here's a demo video of the Italian "Let's Pizza" (a video of the American version is below it)

This is fascinating! I wonder how the Italians will take to this machine. I have a feeling they will reject it as evil. I wonder if the machine can make one
