For some reason, in the games section of the Halifax airport they also have a machine that, for $2.00, dispenses fresh cotton candy. Part of the allure of the machine is that the process can be witnessed, or recorded, by the purchaser. After seeing this I was curious how much such a machine cost and how they could possible sell enough cotton candy in an airport to make the operation financially viable.
