I wonder how many different chickens they sampled from the cell bank. Does their entire product trace back to a single "Eve" chicken sample from the cell bank? For comparison, I read (in "Diet for a New America", I believe) that one ground beef hamburger includes cells from about one thousand different cows. If they just need cell samples, I wonder how different the process would be to grow human meat in a lab. There might be a niche novelty market for "human burgers"!
