In a strange dichotomy, while Japan is packed with drink vending machines, ones that sell food are a lot harder to find.
Retrieving his purchase from the slot, Seiji was overjoyed to find out he’d received a container of bamboo worms!
He’d even saved himself a nice chunk of change since the machine’s bamboo worms are usually priced at 1,600 yen.
It turns out that inside that pouch is yet another pouch, which is finally where you’ll find your food.
“They’re kind of like those little sardines they sell in snack pouches at Japanese convenience stores,” Seiji says.
