I hear you but it sounds like the concern was that no one onsite with the refrigerators could be considered responsible for monitoring for possible tampering with the food.

That's what tamper proof seals are for aren't they?

Cameras in fridge + CCTV could also have worked.

Fridge/unattended issue is a solved one. Japan has vending machines for food.

I think their biggest mistake was turning down the dragon funding. They would have avoided most issues especially the one that led to their shutdown.

With food vending machines, better pricing, and new location deals, this might work out. E.g. A vending machine in an office building.

I bet they would do well in silicon valley or any other location with high startup density.
