==Summary==
'''Vending machines''' are [[human]] machines designed and constructed for quick and easy food consumption. Wall mounted configurations can be found in several human buildings and [[UNSC]] military ships, such as the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}.{{Ref/Level|Id=poa|HCE|The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn}}{{Ref/File|Id=HCEEK|HCEEK|tags\levels\a10\bitmaps\vending_machines.bitmap}} Freestanding configurations are also common on [[space station]]s{{Ref/Level|Id=cairo|H2|Cairo Station}} and in cities.{{Ref/Map|Id=turf|H2|Turf}}{{Ref/Map|Id=tombstone|H2|Tombstone}}{{Ref/Level|Id=exodus|HR|Exodus}} Vending machines can be equipped with [[Holography|holographic]] clerks to help communicate to customers, but these automatons are very simplistic and cannot respond to complex questions.{{Ref/Marketing|Id=ilb|H2|i love bees|Axon Clips Chapter 4|Detail=Jan: "Big Dog"}}


The '''{{PAGENAME}} unit''' is designed  and constructed for easy transactions rather than the usage of onboard cooks on-ship. This is also used to lower, as opposed to the extent of the cost of building and such. It is first found on the [[Pillar of Autumn (Level)|Pillar of Autumn]], and probably most other [[UNSC]] ships. [[Earth]] has several throughout its cities built for [[civilian]] use, similar to vending machines. These are equipped with holographic clerks to help communicate to customers, but the automations are very simplistic and can't respond to every question it is asked. Because of this, and the fact that the systems were becoming too expensive to run, they were soon replaced by more domestic vending machines like those of the earlier 21st century<ref>[[Halo: Combat Evolved]], level [[The Pillar of Autumn (level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]</ref>, though this is not confirmed.

Turkeys are commonly consumed as food by [[humans]], farmed for its meat and eggs. Though humans have been consuming turkeys for centuries, they are still common and popular in human eateries and in [[UNSC]] [[Food & Drink Dispensers]]. Turkeys are also eatan on Thanksgiving which is an American holiday in November. [[Avery Johnson]] compared his first encounter with the [[Flood]], in which the rest of his unit was slaughtered, to a turkey dinner.<ref>''[[Halo: First Strike]]'', page 47: ''They 'passed me up' like I was undercooked spinach at a turkey dinner.''</ref>
