Any time of day or night, hot pizza is available from a vending machine on South University between Pinball Pete's arcade and Pancheros Mexican Grill in Ann Arbor.
Melody Baetens writes in The Detroit News:
PizzaForno on South University is one of five pizza vending machines now serving Michigan. Push a few buttons on a screen, pop in your debit card (or use a credit card, Google Pay or Apple Pay — no cash) and in three minutes you've got a piping hot 11-inch pizza of your choosing. They're $10-$12 and available at any time day or night.
Adam Page and business partner Timothy Ekpo brought the Toronto-based PizzaForno to Michigan. Besides Ann Arbor, they have three machines in Jackson and one in Tecumseh.
What me seem revolutionar follows vending machines with ready-to-eat dumplings and french fries.
In the 1980s, Pinball Pete's arcade in downtown East Lansing had a machine that dropped frozen fries into boiling oil and served crisp snacks in soup-like cups. They weren't bad. -- Allan Lengel
