Snacks are fine, but you don't have to be a food snob to be above getting your meals from a vending machine.
When we heard that Bamn!, an automat in New York, was opening, we gave it a mention just like so many other food-loving writers did. Was it the food of the future? As it turns out, it was the food of the past: a machine that was futuristic in the 1940's, stocked with food that is just plain "gross."
The New York Post hated it and judging by their (hilarious) review, it's a wonder that anyone can stomach the food there at all. The offerings, which include peanut-butter-and-jelly empanadas (sound suspiciously like Uncrustables gone horribly, horribly wrong) and Chicken "teriburgers," are "possibly the worst foodstuffs ever offered for human consumption outside a famine zone." Steve Cuozzo noted that he saw more people taking pictures than eating the food. Clearly they had already heard about the food.
