    Summary

    While the average weight of a vending machine comes to about 639 pounds (290 kg), full size vending machines can weigh upwards 1,000 pounds (450 kg) depending on their brand, stock, and model, creating a risk of serious injury or death if tilted until they fall over.

    Despite this, Sam absolutely does not mind this one getting on top.

    Summary

    “Mr.Sam,” Joel asks him out of the blue during breakfast, “Why is everything you make so gross?”

    Upon the abrupt insult, Sam nearly spits out the runny eggs he barely managed to put together, punching his chest as he choked on his terrible breakfast. “What?” he manages to cough out.

    “Well… hhhh… It’s just my mom used to make super awesome pancakes!” Joel says with a smile… though, it’s hard to tell if it’s an actual smile or just his face. “I know we don’t have a lot of food… But these eggs taste really… hhhh… bad.”

    --------

    A series of events in which Sam learns to cook, and gains a family on the way. Because when you're in the midst of the apocalypse, getting your kids McDonald's isn't exactly a feasible option.
