The Berdoll Pecan Candy and Gift Co. in Cedar Creek, Texas offers full pecan pies in a vending machine, according to a mysanantonio.com report.
The machine, installed in 2008 by owner Jennifer Wammack whose parents own the store, offers a full-sized pecan pie for $30, payable by credit card.
The pie is cold to the touch, thanks to the cooling coils behind the machine and double-paned glass that keeps the pies fresh.
The machine was custom built to include air conditioning by a local manufacturer.
Wammack gets a daily report at 8 p.m. letting her know what needs restocking and what pies were purchased.
The company has added a second machine in Austin.
