Awesome!
There was a french fry machine at the arcade where I spent a sizable chunk of my youth (Pinball Pete's in East Lansing, MI). Fun to watch, and decent fries, served up in a paper cup with the Pinball Pete logo on it. That + a moon pie + a cup of kinda-cold pop (also served up in a Pete's cup) and you had a complete 2am vending-machine dinner and could close the place...
I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog,Facebook, and Twitter.
