Oyster vending machine exists in France

The machine, invented by Brigitte and Tony Berthelot, two oyster farmers on the French island Île de Ré, came up with the idea after a number of their customers admitted to having midnight oyster cravings.

Before you dismiss this idea for fear of winding up with food poisoning, the machine is refrigerated and stocked daily with fresh oysters – the only catch is you have to shuck them yourself.
