ABSTRACT:
A food dispensing machine for dispensing articles of food in either a heated or a non-heated state. A plurality of vertical disposed storage racks are disposed within a refrigerated chamber in the upper portion of the machine. At least one of the storage racks is adapted to deliver an article of food to a microwave oven, wherein the article of food is heated. After the heating cycle is completed, the heated article of food is delivered from the microwave oven to a receptacle bin. Individual selector mechanisms are provided to permit an operator of the dispensing machine to select either an unheated or a heated article of food. Alternatively, unheated articles of food are delivered directly from either of the storage racks to the receptacle bin, thereby bypassing the microwave oven. Provision is made for preventing moisture, generated upon heating of food in the microwave oven, from falling as condensation into the oven.
