Pizza vending machines in Rome did not work well with the public

May 7 2021

After pizza vending machines were installed in Rome, many Italians have criticised the new pizza serving outlet for the state of the pizzas being served. Offering four different kinds of pizza, the Mr. Go Pizza machine has made its debut in Italy’s capital. It takes approximately three minutes to serve a freshly cooked pizza ranging from €4.50 to €6, with customers being able to see the slices being cooked through he glass window.

The low prices however were not enough to satisfy the locals’ tastebuds, as many stated that the pizzas being served were not up to standard. Many even did not want to consider eating a pizza cooked by a machine. Despite pizza vending machines popping up in places like US and Japan, the decision to bring it to the birth place of the dish does not seem to have bode well.
