Lovers on-the-go snack foods will want the Goodie Monster Vending Machine for their own workplace. Dissatisfied with their building’s snack food selections, Mark Jacobs and Mette Hornung Ranki designed this vending machine to fit their needs and tastes.
The idea was “to put good food within people’s reach” at the Goldsmith Building where they both work, according to Bureau of Betterment. They started by purchasing their very own vending machine and then buying supplies like five pounds of polyfill at Fabric Depot. Not only does this vending machine look lovably quirky, it offers healthy options for afternoon snacking.
Both adorable and inviting, the Goodie Monster vending machine will look out for your health and hunger all at the same time.
