Vending machines are big in Italy. Literally.
This is a single vending machine. It's huge! There's one single spot to pay, and there's a wide variety of things, from candy bars to crackers, sandwiches and cold drinks. There's lots of these in the subway stations. In my building there are five different vending machine locations. These are much smaller machines, but there are often two or three next to each other. Coffee machines are the most common. At my building back at MIT, which has about the same number of people, there are no vending machines. And as far as I could find, there's none in the next few buildings. Here in Italy, they would die if they couldn't find a coffee within 200 feet.
Another Italian thing I've discovered is gnocchi ripieni. Filled gnocchi. These ones have tomato and cheese on the inside. Why have I never heard of these before?
