Vending Machines I Would Love To See In America
2008-06-02 17:26:00 Let's face it, vending machines can be a lot more convenient then running into a supermarket and trying to find what you need. I have a soda vending machine half a block away from me and let me tell you, when I need a Diet Coke fix at 3am that's just where I'm headed. Here is my list of vending machines that they should have developed in America.They currently sell a small amount of toilet paper in a little plastic case that is small enough to take with you should you not want to use the toilet paper in public restrooms. Someone tell me why these aren't sold in restrooms in some type of vending machine? At least give people the option which one they want to use. Personally, I'll carry the extra .25 or .50 to not have to use the toilet paper that has mysterious things all over it. Think about it. Your toilet sprays all over the place if you don't close the lid. In a public restroom there's never any lids and most of the time the toilet paper isn't covered so guess what gets a...

Rising Childhood Obesity and Vending Machines
2008-03-28 17:00:00 image by Joe 13 Childhood obesity trends are horrifying. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have noted that in the 70?s childhood obesity rates were less than 6% while studies done today are showing a trend upwards of around 20%. In other words, in a single classroom, instead of there being just one child picked on for being overweight, we now have two or three kids. When considering the fact that childhood obesity leads to serious health consequences, one starts to wonder why it is steadily increasing and what is being done to slow it down. While there are many factors affecting the obesity rates in the US, one huge area to be addressed are the school vending machines. In an educational and supposedly safe environment for children, it is difficult to understand why junk food or high calorie yet nutrient deficient foods are allowed into our schools. Some might argue freedom of choice, but for children who often cannot make the right choice; it is up to adults ...
