This is actually a brilliant idea, in a way. If the food is preserved as well as they claim, these guys could make a fortune by putting the canned food in vending machines. It would probably last longer and be fresher than stuff one can get from existing food machines. Those machines also have very different designs than a soda machine. This canned food could fit perfectly inside the soda machines.
If the preservation techniques for the food hold up, I wouldn't be at all surprised to see one of the big soda companies - probably Pepsi or Coca-Cola - buy this guy's company to get exclusive rights to include food in their machines.
Of course home-prepared meals will always be better, but for someone in a big hurry, this could be a real benefit.
