What's the best drink from here?

Give me one reason why the inventor of this shouldn't be banished to Antarctica without a coat.

Boomers: Holy shit what is this? Take 10 minutes to pour a Coke.
Xers: Fuck off, I just want a Diet Coke
Millennials: 10 minutes figuring out which is made with local, organic, and free-range cane sugar.
Zoomers: 10 minutes trying every fucking variation of Fanta raspberry cream vanilla Coke Zero with a splash of light lemonade.

Fuck this machine

What's your drink? Going to Wendy's that has one and I'm wondering what your drink is?

For me, it's Pibb + Cherry

The only people that like these machines are restaurant owners. They produce an inferior product 100% of the time

This is one of the worst inventions to be accepted into the mainstream culinary world. They make every drink taste like shit. Who would have thought that trying to get a normal Coke from the same nozzle of the guy who just got Raspberry Vanilla Fanta would make it taste horrible.

My hatred of these is so bad that I actively boycott and restaurant who uses these. This includes Firehouse Subs, Burger King, Wendy's, Five Guys, Zaxby's. If I do have to go to one of these I either don't order a drink or request it from the fountain in the back so that it actually tastes normal.

tl;dr fuck these machines they make every drink taste like crap

Am I a retard? I must be a fucking retard.

I see on screen where it says "Press here for your diabetes" and when I tap it, nothing happens, and the background is poorly looped so it looks like I tapped it but it's just the animation freezing in place and I look like a dumbass not selecting anything even though the button is 12 inches big and my fingers seemingly can't work a touchscreen despite having a small one in my pocket I use flawlessly


What the fuck is the problem with this shitty machine? Why can't we have tactile buttons? Make the screen vibrate, do something GOOD

What are some hidden gems in this? Ever since I had orange Coke zero I've been unwilling to experiment because orange Coke zero is perfect.

What do you get when you come across one of these touch screen ones where you can add any flavor to any soda?

fuck those bloated things, why does everyone seem to make a point to overcomplicate things?

What is everyone's opinion on these things?
