Beat that

This is like a giant vending machine for rice in a neighborhood near the university where I teach. The sign says fresh rice, open 24/7/365, 10kg (and then then are various types and prices in each section). Also, there is a coin "husker" on the side where you can bring unhusked rice and for about 300 yen (2.5 dollars?) pour it in and select whether you want it cleaned to white, medium or brown rice. A version (usually just the husker) can be seen a lot in the countryside where there are lots of rice fields. This place was made probably when the burbs were just edging out from the city, but now this is right in a fairly established urban zone. Eye catcher.
