For anyone unfamiliar, these machines take the concept of a fountain drink and have one dispenser that all of the drinks, regardless of flavor, come out of. You tell it what you want on a touch screen.

Problem is, I want a fricking Coke, not some amalgamation of shite that tastes like flat Coke/Mellow Yellow/ Barqs / DP / Fanta and Seagram's Ginger Ale. You can't get a drink from these things without it tasting like a pile of rat shite.

I refuse to get a drink from these fricking things. frick them.

They suck, I hope they go away soon, and I only use them like twice a year.

And get water that tastes like grape Hi-C and Red Creme Soda.

I think they are great. Not many places can you get such a variety. Besides, don't act like you are too good for an old fashioned suicide.

It's going to really piss you off when you find out it is not for improving service, but that it is a data collection device.

Well, it clearly doesn't fricking improve service, so that's no surprise. I assumed it was a social expiriment to determine whose tastebuds are retarded.

When I pick my drink I just let it run for a few seconds before I put my cup under it. never had a problem. Must be nice that your soda flavor is all you have to complain about.

This- I choose my drink, press the button for about 2 seconds, then fill my cup. My drinks never taste like things they shouldn't taste like.

BTW- Fanta Peach and Diet Barq's FTW (2 separate drinks, not mixed together)
