High-end vending

I always stop at one vending machine when walking through the airport terminal in St. Louis. Even during winter, I love to watch the creamy frozen confection twirl into cups at the Ted Drewes frozen custard stall.

The Ted Drewes vending machine, in the Southwest Airlines terminal, is my favorite example of the high-end grab-and-go products that are trending.

Luxury has become convenient.

After all, you can now purchase champagne, fresh oysters and even chia pudding cups from vending machines.

Zucchini noodles anyone? Check out the nearest machine.
