Snackbot (2009) by Jodi Forlizzi, Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and Stanford University. "Snackbot was developed as a way to study human-robot interaction. Jodi Forlizzi and her fellow researchers created a system where snacks could be ordered from the robot's website, and Snackbot would deliver them to offices in Newell-Simon Hall. The Snackbot project was a joint effort between researchers at Carnegie Mellon and Stanford University, and also heavily involved students from CMU's School of Design. One of the unique aspects of the Snackbot project was a focus on design during creation, equating it to function in importance." – The Robotics Project, Carnegie Mellon University.

This reminded me of Regulus "Plus, I like sweets after really good sex" Black.
