next time you see one OP top it over and poop in it

>>17734884
You sound like a sensitive little bitch anon

>>17734896
Let me guess, you're one of those niggers who gets a ginger ale from one of these things

The drinks are never watered down in my experience. These are superior machines.

>>17734884
I'm too cold blooded for the touch screen. I have to hit like 50 times

I always go for vanilla coke because it isn't sold here anymore but I'll try this next time.
>>17734884
Good thread OP getting some ideas for when I visit my favorite quick-food establishment in the near future!

>>17734931
Freedom of choice was wasted on dumb Americans. We need fascism to force people to get fit and stop eating junk and drinking crap like this. I'm tired of looking at fat blobs who take 30 minutes to refill their 128oz soda contrainers everytime I go to get food.

The Pei Wei I go to recently got rid of theirs and it pissed me off.

>>17734910
Maybe I am huh? Huh!? Fuck. You. Piece. Of. Shit.

I'll ram my big boy down your throat no questions asked I'll destroy you, I'll destroy you, I'll put the fear of God into you with my manhood how about that buddy ever think about how my day went before you talk shit about ginger ale. No, obviously not you cretin fuck.

>>17734884
fucking soda printers.

some moron in front of me:
uhm lets see...
what do I want...
coke?
what flavor?
hmm I don't like that.
wow there sure are a lot of flavors in here...
coke with lime in it? blech.
powerade? nope.
hmmm maybe I will just have water.
now how do I get water out of this thing?

>>17734884
I participated in a survey on these things like a decade ago when they were in concept and dev phase. Got paid 50 bucks for it. Anyhow, I've run into the Pepsi version of these things and the Pepsi brand ones are vastly better.
>Responsive fluid and colorful screen
>Screen actually responds to clicks
>Perfect amount of fizz and sweetness
>No disgusting weird aftertaste that this and other Coca Cola models have
Wish they were more mainstream but, like anything involving the public, it'd probably break down asap because of mouth breather boomers and broke junkies slamming the machine for sugar water.

>>17734884
Cool concept. Hate the execution of it. If you ever try the regular Coke on this dispensers it taste like every flavor of coke combine.

The reason for this is that the employees never clean out the tubes.

>>17734884
>Man is irrationally mad about something intended to be a convenience for him
Many such cases.
There's no politics here, no hidden motive besides Coke being Coke. This is virtually indistinguishable from a regular ass soda fountain except for having more options, and if you're going to be assmad about it, BYOB.

>>17734884
How do they fit so many options in one machine without having to refill them every half day?

>>17734935
That's the best combo

>>17734931
Shut it, Klaus.

>>17735418
They do and I think that's why some places are doing away with them. It's probably expensive to buy the refills.

>>17735025
>There's no politics here, no hidden motive besides Coke being Coke.
I didn't suspect there to be but now I do.

>>17734884
Diet Oliet Bangs Cream Soda w/ Strawberry at my local Wawa.

>>17734946
They stopped selling proper vanilla coke in the UK since the faggot fucking sugar tax, we can only get vanilla coke zero now. Fuck the British government and fuck Jamie fucking Oliver.

>>17735418
there's a stockroom full of huge bags of syrup that gets pumped chilled diluted and carbonated to the machine

>>17735019
honestly the franchise owner should be the one in there cleaning their own damn tubes every other day

>>17734884
Fuck you this is the only way I can get Diet Coke vanilla

Anyone who drinks soda or eats out often enough to have an opinion on these machines is a fat American that shouldn't be commenting on anything food related since your palate is so blown out from the corn syrup that 'level of carbonation' is the only flavor you can taste any more.

this is the only way I can get cherry fanta, my favorite flavor.

>>17735418
>>17735865
I don't even know how many people are being retarded on purpose to try and bait versus people that are genuinely retarded.

>>17735881
I'm Canadian. They cuck us out of cool flavors of everything without even the decency to pretend it's due to health. Companies are just cunts and want to maximize their profits so minimize the variety made/imported here.

By the way regular coke and vanilla has the same nutrition label here. Why would vanilla be banned due to sugar but regular coke isn't?

>>17734884
I just hate that one in the imagen cus it doesn't has Dr pepper.

>>17734884
bears

>>17734884
The venn diagram of people who hate these and people that have a cuckolding fetish, is a circle.

>>17736058
Kinda pretentious of you to assume everyone knows how this works. I only learned because I worked at mcdicks in high school. I wouldn’t have know or cared if that weren’t the situation.

>>17734884
I like how most of them offer sparkling water, it's nice to have a drink at a fast food place without tons of corn syrup or aspartame.

>>17736565
I don't think it's pretentious to assume that people are smart enough to realize it makes more sense that the machine has 12 different syrups and simply combines them rather than having a unique one for every button press, resulting in 132 different syrups. But I guess math is super hard for most people.

>>17734884
IS every drink suppose to taste like those packets you rip open and dump into a water bottle?

>>17736477
They removed vanilla because it sells less than regular and cherry (the two that we still get in full-sugar versions), but the imposition of the sugar tax was the impetus for it. It's not that full sugar drinks are banned here, they just have a price premium now due to the tax. I assume Coke thought not enough people would pay the premium for vanilla, so they removed it as a full-sugar option and just sell it as Cuck zero now. Which tastes like piss. They've only done Space coke as a zero in the UK as well. It's total faggotry. I feel your pain though.

>>17736565
>kinda pretentious to assume other people aren't mentally retarded
You don't need to work in fast food to be able to use critical thinking to figure out how a soda machine works. Do you also need work as a mechanic to be able to understand how gas make car go?

>>17734910

What in the hell is wrong with ginger ale?

>>17736634
That's 12 different syrups vs coke diet coke sprite and fanta!

it blew my mind when I saw one of these when I was vacationing in america, but the coke that came out of it definitely tasted differently. I'm guessing they're not always cleaned very thoroughly

>>17734921
It's a resistive touch screen, just admit you're weak anon

>>17737191
>Space coke
>look it up, it's real
The fuck? This hasn't made it here yet as far as I can tell.
Also that sucks. Coke zero is properly gross. We have a bottle someone left here, opened it after not having pop for months. Took one sip. We now plan to use it to de-rust our sink drain, if this useless garbage even works for that.

>>17734935
Peach sprite is GOAT and anyone who disagrees is a tastelet or british

>>17734884
yes. the line is always ridiculous, it takes forever to get what you want.

>>17737449
Anon I'm pretty sure at 95% of places they are cleaned like once a year max

>>17738270
That is why I never eat fast food in shitty parts of my city.
There is not only a very clear difference in service when you're in "the hood", but you can very clearly tell that they clean the restaurant the same way they clean their nasty fucking apartments, and their nasty fucking neighborhoods.
If the people working there live in squalor the chances are the back of the restaurant they work at looks exactly the same.

if you still drink pop past adolescence you are a manchild

>>17738420
If you say pop you are a meth addict

This thread is a great reminder that the median BMI of this board is likely north of 30. So many people with strongly held opinions on their favorite sugar water.

I fucking hate fat people. You are disgusting, a cancer on the world, I'm glad you'll die young, and the only tragedy in that is that you didn't die any sooner.

Thats because Pepsi itself is vastly better that coke

>>17734884
I like them because I like mixing soda anyway

If you believe that has anything to do with increasing profits you're a bigger socialist dupe than normal.

No capitalist let alone Libertarian free choice for you.

I get the vanilla ginger ale, omg how did you know

>>17734910
>insulting ginger ale
Say that to my face and not in the internet you little faggot bitch I’ll break you in half

The upkeep on them is stupid expensive because we live in a society filled with the obese and stupid.

>>17738592
... They're restricting our freedom specifically in smaller markets by reducing the variety of artificial flavors they provide for purchase?
Meds.

>>17738595
Canada has no such fatty tax. Still blaming China for our lack of choice?

>>17737234
>Barely any ginger
>Not an ale

>>17735418
I call them soda printers they contain cartridges of soda flavor concentrate.

if you ever notice they taste week or have a weird after taste it's because they aren't adjusted right.

they suck ass because people who don't know what they like or have never used them take forever to pick something. old style fountains at least you can fill up with something while a moron is staring at it.

>>17734884
They're fine when properly maintained.
The problem is they're almost never properly maintained so everything tastes like flat ditchwater

>>17734884
It'd be a money maker for soda stream to release something similar.
A mini-fridge sized version with 4 primary selections (pic rel) with like 6 modifiers (raspberry, cherry, rye, grape, blue, citrus).

soda machines are 2% condensed syrup, 8% water-carbonation canisters, and 90% ice cubes. And they still run out of ice cubes long before they run out of syrup or carbonated water.

>>17734884
I've never had anything negative to say about them except some of them aren't stocked well enough at specific locations. The mixtures are always better than standard fountains and the variety is great.

strawberry and vanilla sprite for me

>>17738431
i drink diet retard
>muh chemicals
if this is your answer, you're just as retarded as fat people

>>17736498
Just get cherry coke it's the same thing brah

>>17742420
Reg soda makes you fat and diabetes
Diet soda makes you sick and fucks with your internals more

>>17742420
Diet soda is just as acidic as regular soda. Hope you don't mind losing your teeth and fucking up your gut biome because mm tastier than water.

>>17734884
>Not making delicious coke cocktails

I'm with OP cause theres always a crows of little niggletts that can't decide what they fucking want. Give me my cherry coke already or step aside little nigger fags

>>17734884
They are a gimmicky annoyance, but when used correctly, they offer some flavor choices you'll never find in a traditional self-serve soda fountain. Barq's cream soda chads, stand up and take a bow.

>>17742420
what's "diet retard"? a drink just for you? or maybe you share it with OP?
