Fast food in Amsterdam

J was interested in this fast food place called Feebo. Apparently, it's the Dutch equivalent of McDonalds except for one major difference - food items can be obtained through vending machines! We tried it and were impressed. Not only was the food really tasty, they were also still very hot! Hamburgers were available, but most items were variations of deep fried meats. Imagine chicken tenders, but on steroids. We also tried another fast food joint (Smuller's) with the same vending machine concept near the train station - equally good.

One great thing about this experience is that we got rid of A LOT of small change! Machines do not discriminate. They do not spit on you when you attempt to use your small change. Well.. I take that back.. even they rejected the 0,02 EUR coin. Why, oh, why do you make cash denominations that no one will accept?? 

Anyhow....

Watch as J buys fast food from a vending machine for the first time.
