Amy,
I don't know if you know how an Automat operated, but most non-American
listers don't know that behind the little vending boxes of an Automat
restaurant there was an actual kitchen in which food was prepared. I don't
know how it was in Rochester, but in New York City you could even get hot
entrees in an Automat. The difference between a normal vending machine where
the food is normally prepared off site and an Automat was freshness, and
some say quality, of the food.

As a kid in 1976, I remember visiting the Rochester science museum and
getting food from an Automat there.
