Live crab vending machine in China
Wild and crazy is an understatement when it comes to what you’re about to see. In America, we have vending machines that include snacks and coffee. In China, they have vending machines that include live crabs and bananas.

They sell these crabs in China, not in Japan. Only this banana vending machines can be found here in Japan (trust me, I understand what they’re talking^^)

Uhm, this is in China. It can be seen clearly that they are introducing chinese currency (with Mao´s face), and the letters everywhere are Chinese caligraphy. Check your facts. Cheers!

Ease up. The video is Japanese, but it’s filmed in Shanghai. The host is Japanese, and all the subtitles and text in the video are Japanese. Honest mistake.

How horribly cruel. I know that they would have ended up as dinner anyway, but you’d at least think that they’d be frozen. They must be going mental being all cooped up, unable to move – probably all chittering their unhappiness to each other.

For 5 out of the 6 comments posted to be discussing the origin of the report, it’s obvious how desensitized we have become. Just because they are crabs locked into individual caskets waiting to die we seem to overlook that these are living creatures. If they were miniature poodles maybe there would be more of a reaction. Disappointed and disgusted in the human race.
