What you’ll find in a healthy vending machine

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

When was the last time you used a vending machine, and how good for you was what came out of it? Vending machines have long been criticised for only providing things like chocolate and crisps and fizzy drinks, and currently only 14% of snacks available in them offer a healthy alternative. Sport centers and hospitals are trialing so called healthy vending machines as consumers demand something more substantial and nutritious than chocolate, crisps and fizzy drinks. But what will be found in them? First broadcast on You & Yours, 18 November 2019.
