Also note that unless you explicitly tell me otherwise, I intend to ask to get these hearts individually frozen. Much easier to handle, and I need to start with a freeze-thaw cycle for my particular experiment anyway. I'm not sure if I can *get* them already frozen, and I don't know how freezing would affect texture for those of you who want to use them for eating (probably doesn't, I'm guessing). It would obviously affect cell viability, if anyone has any cell culturing ambitions.
