Bananas have shells?

Cute.
BTW. Some fellow denizens here will be charmed to know that France has begun selling oysters out of vending machines. Yup. Vending machines.

France has begun selling oysters out of vending machines.

Raw? Cooked? If so, how? And where in France?

It was a featured piece on CBS or NBC this morning's news. I just took note of the fact of them, not any particulars. I was surfing & cooking at the time. They did show one of the vending machines, and the oysters looked to be raw. Can you imagine?

They also have vending machines that make fresh pizza to order. No frozen ingredients, no microwave ovens.

If we had them in NYC, the rats would be a big as pit-bulls and equally as aggressive as they knocked people aside to get at the treats.

Just a step to the left from the old Horn & Hardart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrbyqUOObdU

Yes, Horn&Hardart did come to mind, from a trip to NYC in my teens, but even then, in the mist of adolescence , such vending resources were not optimum for fresh, non-lethal foods.

That is why I brought this news of the French oyster-vending machines to our attention here. I have a hard time imagining how such a delicate food like oysters could be kept clean and pure.

In France, you can now buy oysters straight out of a vending machine

That is interesting. The article named most of the caveats, so I'm sure the owners are watching it closely.

I wonder how much they sell them for and do you buy one at a time or a box with more? One thing about it, live oysters, like clams, scallops, mussels and other molluscs have closed shells. If the shell is open you don't eat it.

Probably not in shells but refrigerated - not many folks hit the vending machines carrying an oyster shucking knife.....although there might be opening scene for a movie in that,
