Food Tech Friday: Farmbots, Smart Mixers and Cocaine Bear

We're ramping our Friday food tech casual news wrapups back up again, and this week Mike and Carlos got together to talk about some of the stories that caught their attention this week. The stories we talked about include: Will reusable containers take off at colleges? Maybe. What about restaurants? One startup is trying to make it work. A new smart mixer from GE Appliances stood out as an innovative product in a market that has lacked innovation as of late. Has Amazon's Alexa strategy failed? A startup debuts its new driver-optional electronic tractor.  Is this the future of farming? One sidewalk robot company lands a nice deal with Norway's post office, but how are the others doing? Plus: Cocaine Bear! Join us next week on The Spoon's Crowdcast channel to see the live recording.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
