在許多公共場(chǎng)合，你都能見到自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)的身影。你可能覺得在那兒你只能買到些冷飲和零食。其實(shí)并不然，下面就來領(lǐng)略一下各種稀奇古怪的自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)吧！

You probably don’t pay much attention to vending machines, except when you’re thirsty or want a quick snack. Usually you can only choose from a small selection of fizzy drinks and packed, processed snacks. In other words: boring and not very healthy.

你或許只有在口渴或想吃點(diǎn)兒零食時(shí)才會(huì)注意到自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)。通常，售貨機(jī)只出售汽水和獨(dú)立包裝的加工食品，可選余地較小。換句話說就是：品種單一且不利健康。

But vending machines are evolving and some now offer a variety of foods that are freshly prepared, just for you. Whether it’s a cold, sweet treat, a hot meal, or even fresh cooking ingredients, there’s something to satisfy everyone’s desires.

但是自動(dòng)販賣機(jī)正在進(jìn)化，如今一些自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)可以專門為你提供新鮮烹飪的各式食品。無論是冷飲、甜點(diǎn)、熱餐、甚至是新鮮食材，總有一款能令你滿意。

國(guó)家：中國(guó)

What: hairy crabs

出售商品：大閘蟹

How much: 10-45 yuan

價(jià)格：10—45元人民幣

In Nanjing, consumers can buy fresh, live crabs from a vending machine. To keep them alive, the machine has an internal temperature of 5 C, which keeps the crabs in a state of hibernation. Five different varieties of crabs are available and according to an Associated Press report the machine sells up to 200 of them a day. If anyone receives a dead crab, the company compensates consumers with three live ones.

在南京，消費(fèi)者可以從自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)上買到鮮活的螃蟹。為保證螃蟹長(zhǎng)時(shí)間存活，售貨機(jī)內(nèi)部溫度設(shè)定為5攝氏度，從而保持螃蟹處于冬眠狀態(tài)。在這里，你可以買到五種不同的螃蟹，據(jù)美聯(lián)社報(bào)道，該售貨機(jī)一天可售出200只螃蟹。如果有消費(fèi)者買到死蟹，商家會(huì)賠償三只活螃蟹。

How much: 1.60-6.50 euros (15-55 yuan)

價(jià)格：1.6—6.5歐元（合15—55元人民幣）

In the Netherlands there is a restaurant chain that serves food exclusively out of vending machines, or automats. Open 24 hours a day, FEBO is popular among tourists and locals out late. It offers a Dutch menu including croquettes, frikandels (a deep-fried sausage) and kaassouffles (a melted-cheese snack). But rather than being prepared in the vending machines, the food is prepared by humans in a kitchen behind the machines.

在荷蘭有一家只在自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)上出售食物的連鎖餐廳。FEBO是一家自動(dòng)販賣式餐館，提供24小時(shí)全天候服務(wù)，深受游客和當(dāng)?shù)匾关堊宓臍g迎。它提供的荷蘭菜品包括炸肉丸、frikandels（一種油炸香腸）和kaassouffles（一種奶酪卷）。但是，這些食物并非是在自動(dòng)販賣機(jī)里制作的，而是在機(jī)器后面的廚房里人工烹飪的。

價(jià)格：3美元（合18元人民幣）

An ice-cream machine may not sound like anything special, but the MooBella Ice Creamery Machine certainly is!

盡管冰激凌自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)可能聽上去并無特別之處，但是MooBella冰激凌自動(dòng)販賣機(jī)的確與眾不同。

Using a touchscreen panel, customers can design their own ice cream in three easy steps. A total of 12 flavors are available, but a choice of special mix-ins, including chocolate chips and cookies, means 96 different combinations are possible. Each portion is freshly mixed in just 40 seconds.

Where: Singapore

國(guó)家：新加坡

What: mashed potato

出售商品：土豆泥

How much: S$1 (5 yuan)

價(jià)格：1新元（合5元人民幣）

Making mashed potato is a long, laborious process. But thanks to Maggi, a Swiss food and condiment company, it can be as simple as just adding hot water to a packet of mashed potato powder. In Singapore, however, not even that is necessary anymore. Many 7-Eleven stores there now have Maggi mashed potato machines. All hungry customers need to do is place a cup under the machine’s nozzle, push a button and mashed potato comes pouring out. You can even add chicken gravy sauce if you like.

做土豆泥本是費(fèi)時(shí)又費(fèi)力的事。但得益于瑞士Maggie食品調(diào)料公司，你只需要把熱水倒入一包土豆泥粉中，土豆泥就可輕松制作完成了。然而在新加坡，就連這個(gè)工序都可以省了。如今很多新加坡的7-Eleven便利店都配備了Maggie土豆泥自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)。饑腸轆轆的顧客只要把杯子放在機(jī)器噴嘴下面，按下一個(gè)按鈕，土豆泥就出來了！你喜歡的話，甚至還可以在其中加上雞汁醬。

出售商品：披薩

How much: 3-4.5 euros (25-35 yuan)

價(jià)格：3—4.5歐元（合25—35元人民幣）

Italians invented the pizza, so it was only a matter of time until they invented a pizza-making machine. Let’s Pizza prepares fresh pizza in less then three minutes and allows the customer to watch the whole process through a window. It kneads the dough, spreads the sauce on it, adds a choice of four toppings and then bakes the pizza. The machine can make up to 100 26-centimeter pizzas before it needs to be refilled.

意大利人創(chuàng)造了披薩，所以，他們發(fā)明出披薩機(jī)也只是時(shí)間早晚的問題。這款Let’s Pizza自動(dòng)售貨機(jī)可以在三分鐘內(nèi)制作出新鮮的披薩，顧客可以通過一個(gè)窗口觀看到整個(gè)烹飪過程。該機(jī)器先是揉面團(tuán)、噴灑醬料，再加入可供顧客四選一的配料，然后烘焙披薩。填滿一次材料，最多可以制作出100個(gè)直徑26厘米的披薩。
