Complaint filed, resulting in Sacramento County health department to put pause on vending machine launch

An East Sacramento butchery's plans to expand its access to meats using an outdoor vending machine have been paused.

V. Miller Meats store owner Eric Veldman Miller said a complaint was filed, and now the vending machine operation has been placed on hold until the Sacramento County Health Department approves the machine. He hopes to be able to begin selling meats through the vending machine soon.

According to Miller, the machine is unlike a typical snack or soda machine. It was built specifically just to hold meat, and it will be able to fulfill customer orders even when he's not there.

He calls it a continuation of the butcher shop that’s ideal for purchasers who know exactly what they're looking for or for whom precious time is at stake.
