What?

From MR:
"A Shanghai hospital cultivated and reintroduced human brain tissue in 2002 after taking a sample from the end of a chopstick implanted in a patient's frontal lobe following a disagreement at a restaurant."
Article here. So, I don't know if I'm more flabbergasted at the "cultivated and reintroduced human brain tissue" part or the "from the end of a chopstick implanted in a patient's frontal lobe" part.
