Question: English filmmaker and producer Sir Alfred Hitchcock had an extreme fear of these
Answer: Eggs
Albumin(egg white), vitellus (yolk)
Alfred had two major phobias that he never addressed in any of his films. One was ovophobia -Alfred’s fear of eggs- the other? The fear of the police.
[on his lifelong fear of eggs ("ovophobia")] “I'm frightened of eggs, worse than frightened, they revolt me. That white round thing without any holes . . . have you ever seen anything more revolting than an egg yolk breaking and spilling its yellow liquid? Blood is jolly, red. But egg yolk is yellow, revolting. I've never tasted it.”

Question: The world’s first vending machine dispensed what?
Answer: Holy Water
World's First Vending Machine
Inventor: Hero of Alexandria Date: 100 A.D. How it works: A person puts a coin in a slot at the top of a box. The coin hits a metal lever, like a balance beam. On the other end of the beam is a string tied to a plug that, when compressed, dispensed holy water
It was devised to distribute Holy Water at temples, because "people were taking more Holy Water than they were paying for"
In addition to inventing the worlds first vending machine, Hero of Alexandria also developed the first Automatic Temple Door and The Bottomless Wine Glass-- which is very similar to the beer bongs of today. . . Thanks Hero of Alexandria!!!
