Transparency

Coffee vending machine. Soweto, 2006

Vending machine for coffee in a Soweto petrol station. Simply select an appropriate amount of coffee, lactose and non-dairy-milk-substitute. Despite what it's selling I like the transparency and frankness of this device - you get what you get. Compare it to coffee machines covered in photos of frothy cappucinos and french waiters.

Most the petrol stations here served a decent fresh brew.
