Theories ( possible spoilers)

Does anyone have a theory on how Sheila became a zombie?
When I watched the first episode and saw Joel's reaction, I thought he botched an attempt to poison his wife. I'm glad that's not the case, and I thought the show was going to be something else entirely. I thought that the show would have more suspense and we'd find out that Joel wanted to kill his wife.
As for how I think Sheila became a zombie, I think that within 24 hours of when she died, she came into contact with a carrier. I don't know how she managed to not notice it, but I'm sure it will be addressed in season 2.

I have no idea but what is that little red ball everyone vomits?

My best guess would be it's what keeps humans from being undead. I'm not sure why a person has to vomit to death in order to bring it up.

Ya, I hope they go into the back story a bit more. I really liked S1, and while it's fun to watch them go about their day, figuring out her undead-ness, there's a curiosity to it all that I hope they address.
How did she get it? How many of them are there in the world? How can it have been so contained for hundreds of years?

Well I am watching season 2 now, and apparently it has to do with something she ate at a restaurant. But I guess everyone here must know that by now
