My favorite Vegetable Vending Machine in Tokyo | Tokyo
Information | History | View | Sightseeing | Video
I don't know what these are officially called. Neither does Ryosuke. So we call them "Vegetable Vending Machines." There's about six of these in a 2km radius of our house, run by different farmers. Sometimes the vegetables are cheaper than our local supermarket; sometimes they are more expensive. Thankfully, everything is so close (yay for Tokyo), so comparing prices between the three sources only takes like 15 minutes. If they're close enough, I just buy from the vending machines. I've chatted with the farmer who stocks them (his farm is right next to our building). I like supporting locals. And stuff. Learn something new every day, right?

Even though I do not eat a lot of veggies,they are still a cool idea. Yes,they may cost more,but at least you can be sure it is fresh.

Interesting how farmers use those vending machines to sell their produce. But my question is, do they ever get bought by people other than Grace?
