Hey guys!
Hope your week has been treating you well : ) We have A LOT of food in our living room right now (approx 750 lbs worth to be exact).
Remember how I said things were moving along with our vending machines? Well, we got all the food today! 
I don’t know how much food for five vending machines looked like until I got home, haha. It was more than I expected! At first we felt slightly overwhelmed and in over our heads but what’s to be expected? We’re new at this! It’s exciting … we just have to iron out all the wrinkles and get adjusted. 
One thing I know … it’s a lot of fun to have all this food in my house! We taste tested a few products. First, a Mix 1 Berry smoothie …
… then a Raw Revolution bar.
And check out these little packets of Materne apple sauce …. love them!! It’s such a cute and efficient idea … they’re squeezable and resealable. 
While doing a little taste testing, we went through all our inventory and organized it a little better to make sure we had everything. 
This part might be boring for some but some of you guys have asked what all we’re putting in the machines and to start out … here is our loot:
- Popchips
- Kettle Foods bakes
- Zen Soy, Soy on the go cappuccino
- Materine Applesauce
- Robert’s Gourmet Smart Puffs
- Robert’s Gourmet Pirate’s Booty
- Kettle Foods Chips
- Stacy’s Pita Chips
- Brother’s All Natural fruit crisps
- Stretch Island fruit leathers
- Barbara’s Bakery fruit and yogurt bars and snackimals
- Raw Revolution bars
- Clif Z Bars
- Late July sandwich cookies
- Back to Nature graham sticks and mini cookies
- Blue Sky tea soda
- Hansen’s soda
- Steaz energy drink
- Mix 1
- Horizon organic milk
- Imagine Foods Kidz smoothies
- Honest Tea juice
- Adina iced coffee
- Itoen iced tea
- Tazo iced tea
This is fun! : ) Erik’s going down to set up all the machines the middle of next week and as soon as I can, you know I’m going to take plenty of pictures at the locations to share with you!!
Hope you guys all have a great weekend!! :)

ReplyDeleteanyway...those raw revolution bars and applesauce look interesting
Have a nice day pretty lady.
SO COOL!!! We wouldn't even be able to fit all that food in our tiny apartment. good thing I'm not in that business. I bet you are having so much fun with it though. If I had a vending machine, I would definitely use you guys, and get all that healthy food stocked up in it. All of the brands are so healthy and nourishing, I wish ALL vending machines had foods like yours!
