Have you used one of these new coke touchscreen fountain machines? F'N amazing. All the products they make in all the flavors they make. Select what you want and dispense. Que the alcohol version!!!!!! They are commonplace here. Definitely need a "jack" flavor and a "rum" flavor. |

We've had them here for about a year. Burger King has them exclusively from what I can tell. They are pretty cool.

Wendy's in TX has them also, along with Pei Wei and many other places. A lot of cruiseships have them also.
They are called the Coke Freestyle Machine |

They need a way to purge the line between selections.
The wait for technology averse people to figure out how to work it and make up their mind can be a bit much. |

Saw one of them at a local restaurant -- brings back fond memories of a summer church camp I attended as a kid one year; they had a fountain machine in the chow hall, and we all made "suicides" with them... basically everything the machine could put out mixed in a cup... LOL

ETA: Shame they don't have a "Coffee" flavor option. "Coke Black" Was pretty good. |

Everyone touches them, then eats their food. I have been to a couple placed that have them, and never noticed anyone wash their hands after touching it. |

At least you're getting your own drink. I stopped going to Panera after I saw an employee take containers out of an insulated pack in a diaper bag that looked like breast milk and formula powder, use one of the counter blenders, then go in the back with it, presumably to feed their spawn.

Some people stare at the screen like it holds the mysteries of the universe. I tend to try to scan & push buttons faster than the machine allows, and end up taking as much time as they do.

I don't really drink soda, but I've been seeing these machines for years.
Last few times I've gone and a buddy has gotten soda from one, he says it always tastes like orange soda. |
