You're right in that blogs like to claim this a lot, but sadly the reality doesn't quite match the image. Around my area I can get about 100 different drinks from vending machines, but apart from that I can only think of machines that sell condoms / dating club membership cards and one that sells diet candy bars.

The Japanese have vending machines for nearly everything related to shopping.
