Okay but like... how are they gonna count out my change?
In Japan, you order from a vending machine, pay the machine, get a slip of paper, and hand it to the cook.
I think that system is fantastic.
We have this in the US to. Even McDonalds does them!
For different reasons though. In japan it's for small restaurants which don't employ many people or don't have a lot of space or both. For McDonald's it's for pinching a dollar more for their empire.
So about saving money, which is the same reason
McDonald's is franchised
Ya I hate that. I have walked out of a McDonalds and went to the drive thru just so a person would take my order.
