    On September 8, 2022, I made a purchase from a vending machine at the hospital that I work at. After eating one of the donuts that Ihad bought, I noticed that it had a weird taste. I looked at the packaging and noticed the date was expired. The date on the package was marked as 09/04/2023. I pulled the donuts apart to examine and there was mold on each one close to the center. I immediately filed an inquiry on their website due to calling and getting a voicemail stating that messages were not being accepted. I have called several times to request a refund and to report this issue. I had stomach cramps and diarrhea for two days afterwards. The company has not responded to my inquiry nor have they returned a phone call. As my job is security at the facility, i had to post a note on the vending machine to prevent others from purchasing the items since it was noticed that several other items in the machine had expired dates

    System shows driver visited machine on 9/13/2023 and spoiled out expired honeybuns and donuts. We had phone and email service updated recently, did not see email with complaint, it may be in spam filter which we believe we have gotten fixed now and had voicemail fixed on 9/15/2023 due to other complaints about no voicemail. I spoke with Tawanda today, 9/28/2023 apologizing for the missed communication and am sending a gift card to her home address for the inconvenience of situation.
