It might seem as though the wacky kinds of vending machines out there are getting a little bit crazy, but fans of greasy food are likely to go wild for the French Fry Vending Machine, which can deliver a scrumptious serving in just 90 seconds.
Costing a mere 2.50 euros per order, the French Fry Vending Machine will dispense a healthy sized portion with a dollop of either ketchup or mayonnaise on top -- but not both. The bizarre yet delicious invention can be found in Chaussee de Gand-Steenweg op Gent in Brussels, Belgium, but it's likely that such an invention won't stay in one spot too long without being desired elsewhere, so we might see them in our communities soon enough.
