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 UNSC Pillar of Autumn.[1][2] Freestanding configurations are also common on space stations and on Earth throughout its cities.[3] Vending machines can be equipped with holographic clerks to help communicate to customers, but these automatons are very simplistic and cannot respond to complex questions.[4]

It is likely that most vending machines use a substitute meat, as by 2552 meat was heavily rationed within the UNSC and usually only available to the very wealthy.[4]
