It failed because it couldn’t spit in your burger.

It failed because the machine understood English.

If AMF invented it, I wonder why it was never installed in bowling alleys?

Gotta love the music and the vibe of that film.
Of course I can’t help but visualize Lucille Ball working the controls of the Amfare console and producing 7,314 strawberry shakes.

Tabbut, you do have to spare the customers a **little** attention sometimes.

Those jazzy soundtracks were really quite creative in those days. If you could filter out the voiceover, you could really chill out to them. Apparently this is what a lot of musicians did for day work. They'd record soundtracks for shorts like this and then they'd perform at a local nightclub by night.
Whenever I see a short from this era, I think of how MST3K use to riff on them.

Every machine in the video should have expired patents. With modern upgrading for food safety and digital controls/new developments, could be a low cost way for a tech-type to start up discount priced fast food place ...

McDonald’s cooks their products on specific timers and when the buzzers go off you are expected to sear, turn and pull meat.
While the meat is cooking, the buns are prepared with condiments and when the final buzzer goes off the meat is placed on the buns and packaged.
Currently, McDonald’s has machines which dispense the exact amount of fries to fulfill an order.
Other than special orders, there is no reason why a machine can’t automate the process, eliminating most of the staff on grills and fryers.
Heck, the military has automated the charging and loading of munitions, with computers and automation eliminating most of the tasks for delivering a missile or bomb, aboard destroyers and even field artillery.
But the fast food industry can’t automate their processes?
