This cake slice business, of what I understand to be relatively mediocre cake, has all the appeal of Japan's machines selling 'used' underwear (for the record, that's NO appeal whatsoever, LOL)

Whaat? Are they co-located with love hotels?

The Truth Behind Japan’s Used Panty Vending Machines

When discussing wacky Japanese antics, people often mention used panty vending machines to demonstrate just how bizarre it gets. For some, this is one of the first things they ever hear about Japan. As a result, many a randy tourist has traversed the country in search of these fabled panty dispen

I am reminded of the new thing around Pizza from vending machines.........

PizzaForno | Canada's 24/7 Automated Pizza Oven | Artisanal Pizza Made Fresh to Order in 3 Minutes

PizzaForno is Canada's 24/7 Automated Pizza Oven. Artisanal pizza made fresh to order in 3 minutes. Find your nearest location

Anyone tried this? Three locations in the core.

I find it interesting that this automated pizza oven has more locations in Sudbury than in Toronto.

Apparently this strange phenomenon of Cake Boss vending machines has proved exceeding popular, and requires the machine's be restocked as many as 4x per day.

More machines are now en route, location TBD; and they will be stocking 2 additional varieties of this cake. (something called vanilla confetti and cookies and creme)

Cake Boss plans to expand with more vending machines in Toronto

Loosen you belt buckles, Toronto, because it looks like we're getting even more of the cake ATMs causing people to line up at vending machines befo...

Would someone do me the favour of explaining why anyone is paying $8.99 for a slice cake from a vending machine?

I could not tell you. Doesn't even come with tea. I saw one at the Waterpark Place food court today and had to do a triple take. Wtf. Buddy's face on the side of it. Man, that's surely a sign of the decadent collapse of civilisation.

I think it's for sugar crackheads.....the harried masses who have given up on life and find solace in "convenient" doses of shitty carbs.

Legit, even smoking vaping is cooler than stuffing your face full of dodgy vending machine cakes.

Edit: Actually, I love smoking even though I don't anymore so I'm going to change that to compare two lame things to each other.

You didn't really need to change it, smoking is irredeemably lame.

What? No, I changed it because it isn't. Vaping, however, is.

I like smoking. I think everyone should do it in their youth. Ok, maybe not asthmatics.

Yeah, sorry, mate, we're not going to agree on this one. Not sure what smoking ever did to you, but it treated me alright for the 15 years I did. Went damn well with alcohol and caffeine as well!

Commerce Court getting Starbucks app order only/Pickup only (no seats) location Feb 4.

Starbucks to open first Canadian "Pickup" store in Toronto February 4 | Dished

"This is unlike any Starbucks you’ve seen before."

dailyhive.com

Starbucks has announced another Canadian first is coming early next month.

The coffee chain will be opening its first Canadian “Pickup” concept, a store that will be entirely dedicated to mobile orders.

This means Starbucks Rewards members in Toronto can head to the soon-to-be-open Commerce Court location and grab their coffee order on-the-go without any delays.

Starbucks’ new Pickup location will offer the same array of food and beverages as a regular outpost, but there will be no seating available.
It will be the first-of-its-kind in Canada and the second in the world for the brand.
