    Can I just have a little rant and say that i hate the stupid vending machine in my office?  Whenever I need a little break from work (for some reason eating = break in my warped mind) it's right there with it tempting little Twix bars.

    Boo!  I hate that damn thing!

    Can someone please invent a vending machine full of carrot sticks?  Or take all the change out of my wallet (hmm...not a bad idea actually...)

    We have crazy vending machines that don't work and/or don't accept bills.  So frustrating!!!

    A vending machine with healthier options would be great.  I know the ones we have at school at least have a couple relatively healthy options (pretzels, Goldfish, trail mix, smoked almonds).

    OMG haha I totally just ate a Twix from our office vending machine. It is the bane of my existence and my best friend all wrapped up into one obnoxious machine that constantly eats my money and refuses to take perfectly acceptable dollars. Sigh.

    There is a vending machine at school.  I make sure that I don't carry any cash and I bring snacks from home so I don't go for the candy bars!

    I got chex mix out of our vending machine a couple weeks ago because it had the little heart and check mark and said "the healthy choice." Um, not so much once I read the package. And every time I want a Nature Valley granola bar it only has the gross peanut ones instead of the yummy maple ones. :( Stupid thing. I just try to ignore it, which can be hard because it's right. inside. the break room.

    Oh I know what you mean about the fake healthy food!  Also healthy does not always equal a resaonable reasonable calories.  Boo to that.

    I had to buy something at a grocery store today and I was paying at a self serve keiosk so I use up all of my change. 

    Take that vending machine!  Now I can't use you even if I want to.  (Which I do.  Becasue even as I'm eating the M&Ms and thinking about how the chocolate is such crappy quality and they aren't that good...they somehow ARE SO GOOD.)
