A plant-based smart vending machine is now in downtown Vancouver

Want to feel like you’re grabbing a quick meal in Shibuya? Then you might want to head down to the Telus Garden to try a new smart vending machine specializing in plant-based meals. The local company Modern Meat is behind this new addition, here’s the scoop!

Basically, Modern Meat wants to provide an alternative for the classic ‘on-the-go’ meals, which they feel could be a little more nutritious. Hey, we don’t blame them, we don’t want to know how many 7/11 taquitos we’ve eaten in our lives. To accomplish this, they’ve partnered with the Vancouver-based vending machine company UpMeals.

We’re going to keep this new option in mind the next time we’re downtown. Although, it’s hard to pass up food trucks either. Decisions, decisions…
