That’s right, McDonalds is testing robotic food dispensing kiosks:

Outside Chicago in St. Charles, Illinois, longtime McDonald’s Corp. franchisee John Lardas has reconfigured his restaurant, replacing three ordering stations manned by employees at the front counter with one traditional station and four stand-alone computers, or kiosks. “You see no lines because people are spreading themselves out,” said Lardas, who estimates that 70 percent of customers now opt to use the technology.

@axxxr - With this latest trend, it's not far from happening that other fastfood chains will also follow suit, like: Jollibee, Chowking, Greenwich, Kenny Rogers, Burger Machine and Big Mak!
