Send Pizza
Two-year-old Hazel is undergoing treatment for neuroblastoma at Children's Hospital in L.A. As a lark, her family helped her tape "Please Send Pizza" in her window. Yesterday, redditor ashortstorylong spotted the sign in the window of the hospital and took a picture. The picture made the front page and then went viral on social media. One thing led to another, and the fourth floor of the hospital received dozens of pizzas- enough pizzas for everyone!
The hospital has issued a statement thanking donors, but says no more pizzas are needed. Link
Update: Hazel's mother wrote about the event in a blog post, with more pictures. Link

Anyway, love this story. So sweet and I'm sure brightened up those kids' day.
Gotta laugh when these city boys come up with ideas.

"This is the latest," said Crake.
What they were looking at was a large bulblike object that seemed to be covered with stippled whitish-yellow skin. Out of it came twenty thick fleshy tubes, and at the end of each tube another bulb was growing.
"What the hell is it?" said Jimmy.
"Those are chickens," said Crake. "Chicken parts. Just the breasts, on this one. They've got ones that specialize in drumsticks too, twelve to a growth unit.
"But there aren't any heads..."
"That's the head in the middle," said the woman. "There's a mouth opening at the top, they dump nutrients in there. No eyes or beak or anything, they don't need those."

Nope. People have no clue where food comes from or in what horrible conditions the animals are bred.
Btw: they are growing meat in petri dishes today; zombie chickens are small potatoes compared to that.

Plus this sounds REALLY expensive and would probably jack up the prices of meat.
I think people are going to be more disturbed by brainless zombie chickens on their plate than densely packed normal chickens. Not to mention the complete lack of muscle development this will cause is going to create a different product.
I'd rather see more development on growing muscles from scratch as meat than this.
