Crazy things from Japan, vending machine edition

Hey everyone!

I have tons and tons of news to share, and it will hopefully make it onto this blog very soon! Just not in chronological order. Anyways, today's topic is crazy things from Japan: vending machine edition, and it will consist entirely of pictures of said crazy things! Woo!

ALSO, regarding updates, I did update more recently than the majority of you think; however Blogger put the new entry below the one directly below this one (is this making sense? It's a bit late here) so I don't think many of you saw it. So, pretty please, if you'd like to read an update, scroll down 2 entries, and there should be a new one that you haven't seen before.

じゃ、またね!




a cafe latte available from the vending machine. served cold and drunk through a straw.

here's where there crazy kicks in: a vending machine for bowling shoes in the bowling alley! "wow," you are thinking, "Japan has vending machines for everything!" you'd be pretty much correct (including beer, although those are as rare as a vending machine with food in it), which is how you find things like the following:

that, my friends, is a can of pancake flavored drink, served warm. when we saw this in the vending machine we all thought "ew! ... wonder what it tastes like?" I was more curious/brave/stupid than everyone else there, so I took the plunge and drank it. post first sip, this was my expression:

read: euhh, i just drank that, didn't i? and for your information, it really did taste like pancakes with syrup. i have no idea how they make such a thing happen, but that's what it tasted like. incidentally, I could only take a couple sips before passing it off to Jake, who was the only other one brave/curious/stupid enough to try it. bonus picture of his facial expression post sip below:

mm, yeah, sorry, that really did just happen Jake.
