I have started a series on the Japanese Vending machine. Did you know: Japan has the highest number of vending machines per capita, with about one machine for every twenty-three people. In Japan, vending machines are known as 自動販売機 (jidō-hanbaiki) from jidō, or “automatic”; hanbai, or “vending”; and ki, or “machine”, 自販機 (jihanki) for short.
