New 24 Hour Cheese Vending Machine Offers Some Of The World’s Best Cheese
A world-famous cheesemaker has opened a vending machine that will offer their world’s best cheeses for 24 hours a day. Here’s how you can try it.
It seems like there’s a vending machine for nearly everything these days. Nothing is too strange to purchase with just a few button pushes. Now, a new contender enters the ring: Cheese.
Perrystead Dairy in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania was opened three years ago by Yoav Perry, who has been creating cheese for over 15 years. He spent time in New York before moving to Philadelphia to “define American original cheese,” according to Perrystead’s website.
Perrystead’s unique cheeses have garnered international acclaim, with nine awards under its belt:
- Intergalactic won SILVER at the 2023-2024 World Cheese Awards in Norway
- The Real Philly Schmear won SILVER at the 2023-2024 World Cheese Awards and BRONZE at the 125th International Cheese Awards in the UK in 2022
- Moonrise won BRONZE at the 125th International Cheese Awards
- Treehug won BRONZE back-to-back at the World Cheese Awards 2022-2023 and 2023-2024
- Atlantis won SILVER at the 2023-2024 World Cheese Awards and BRONZE at the 2024 World Cheese Championship Contest, USA
- Toasted won BRONZE at the World Cheese Awards 2022-2023 in Wales
Perrystead turned a lot of heads recently when it announced a new innovation in cheese sales: the cheese vending machine.
The vending machine offers a variety of Perrystead’s award-winning cheeses alongside choice meats, crackers, and even a charcuterie board.
Perry said the idea for the cheese vending machine came from a demand he couldn’t keep up with.
“People kept knocking on the door and asking to buy cheese, but I don’t have retail space,” he said.
The 24/7 vending machine offers The Real Philly Schmear, Intergalactic, Moonrise, Treehug, and Atlantis cheeses.
