I saw this vending machine in terminal 3 at Chicago's O'Hare Airport. Farmer's Fridge is a fresh salad vending machine that dispenses fresh healthy salads in plastic mason jars. Each jar of salad comes complete with dressing and fixings. You can also choose from a variety of side proteins such as grilled chicken, salmon, boiled eggs, roasted beets and tuna. The machine houses self serve eco-friendly paper trays and utensils that you can eat your tossed salad with or share it with a friend. If you choose to eat you salad there you can drop off your plastic mason jar in the receptacle in the machine so it can be recycled and reused. There is a large touch screen that displays a complete description of your salad with complete nutritional information. The price of the salads range from $8-$12, not bad for airport food. This would be a god send for travelers who arrive at night after 9:00 when most eating establishments in both the airport and in town are closing. You can pick up your salad and take it back to your hotel to eat later.
