The Kandy machine is a vending machine that first appears in the episode "Rock Bottom."

Description

The Kandy machine is light gray with many red buttons at the bottom of it. There is a glass window near the top that displays the variety of snacks inside. The word "Kandy" is also located at the very top as a neon pink sign. The letter "N" on the sign is backward.

Role in series

"Rock Bottom"

The Kandy machine is located right across the bus stop in Rock Bottom. After SpongeBob gets stuck in Rock Bottom and fails to satisfy his hunger with his candy glove, he spots the Kandy machine across the street and wants to get a Kelp Nougat Crunch bar from it. However, every time he tries to go to the machine, the bus will arrive at the bus stop and then leave before he can get to it.

Eventually, SpongeBob is able to buy his candy bar, but the bus ends up leaving him as usual. A Rock Bottomite then comes and takes SpongeBob's Kelp Nougat Crunch bar from the Kandy machine, ultimately destroying his opportunity to eat it.
