In Japan vending machines are selling Oden.

When you come to Japan what you notice is that there are many vending machines in town. All the drinks of the vending machines seem to be delicious, and we can not help but put coins into them. Actually there are reasons for the large number of vending machines to be set in Japan.

Japan is a safe place. Even if vending machines are installed on public roads and parks, they are rarely broken.

When you are walking on the streets of Tokyo on weekdays, you should be surprised at the walking speed of many office workers. Before going to the office or after working overtime, many office workers do not have enough time to go to a convenience store. Therefore, it seems that a vending machine will be useful without going to the convenience store, standing in line in front of the cash register.

Japanese people are much familiar with a vending machine, so the various products are increasing gradually. If you can drop in Akihabara I recommend you to enjoy a number of  vending machine. First you can see Oden sold in the vending machine.

Speaking of oden, it is one of the most popular dishes that represent Japanese food, and it is a food that you miss when it gets cold in winter. There is a place in Tokyo where you can eat such oden easily and quickly by a vending machine. Oden is made by simmering several kinds of ingredients, and unique taste is created. You can buy Oden at convenient stores in winter but in Akihabara you can enjoy Oden in all seasons.

I find the movie of Oden sold in the vending machine.

And you can look for various vending machines except for Oden in Akihabara. I have seen toys of beetles, potato chips, toothpaste, salt and so on. I wonder why such products are selling in the vending machines.
