(UPDATE: This is actually just a really cool vending machine. A really cool machine with a fancy screen that shows a VIDEO of a potato being made. But hey, you have to admit, it looks cool. I am an idiot, and I hate the internet).
(Editor’s note: I also am an idiot.)

Adage reported recently on what could be the coolest mainstream food device ever: The Lay’s Machine. This brilliant piece of design allows a chip-hungry user to insert a real potato, and by way of a Rube Goldberg-ish design, get a friggin’ fresh, steaming bag potato chips on the other end.
Want.
Fast forward to today, when PSFK visualized the first wave of the Lay’s marketing campaign. We have to say, it’s very convincing. According to PSFK, a Walmart in Buenos Aires already has a working real-spud vending machine, and the viral video (below) hints at much more.
Even if this doesn’t make it to Frito-Lay-Heaquartered Plano and Dallas (which, come on, it totally should), you should at least watch the cleverly made video below.
