Hot dogs, makeup, iPods, magazines, and marijuana - all items you think, "I need faster access to," right?
If walking into a store just isn't your thing, ABC News found vending machines that dispense everything from electronics to drugs to sex toys to food that frankly has no business being in a vending machine in the first place (deep-fried onion rings?) are cropping up worldwide.
I'm all for most (but not all) of these - especially makeup. Concealer for surprise zits? Lip gloss? Hand lotion? All worthy of my quarters.
But some of the others....dunno. See what you think:
Get your wacky tabbacky straight out of a vending machine -- although the roach clip is another .25 cents. 
This isn't just a selection of magazines - it's a magazine feast! Try finding THAT at Barnes & Noble.
Hot dogs, piping hot! That these would be available for dispensing 24/7 is further evidence that there is, in fact, no meat in a hot dog. Cheez-flavored product extra.
Oh, there's more: Check out ABC News.
