7-Eleven introduces mashed potato vending machine

The 7-Eleven convenience store chain is now featuring a Slurpee-type machine that dispenses mashed potatoes and gravy.

The Huffington Post on Monday confirmed that the Maggi mashed potato vending machines were beginning to show up in stores in the U.S.

I used to think the Fleshlight attachment for the iPad (NSFW) was the end of civilization, but I’m pretty sure this takes the cake.

Can’t wait to hear what Patton Oswalt has to say about this. His rant on the “KFC Failure Pile in a Sadness Bowl” is epic (NSFW language).

    There’s a Patton Oswalt missing link joke to be made here, but stones in glass houses and all that. Unless that was a NSFW scavenger hunt challenge.

    What we really need to know is whether mashed potatoes count as a Slurpee flavor. If I can mix them up with frozen Coke for a summer treat, I’m down.

    They’ve had this in 7-Elevens in Asia (Singapore) for quite a while now, a decade I believe.

    I’m holding out for the machine that dispenses ground “beef” with mayonnaise.
