When my daughter was growing up she loved the book, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs.

The book was published in 1978.

The pizza drones are constructed with the help of 3D printing, lowering food to hungry customers on the ground via tether.

Do not get all crusty about the lack of delivery here.
It will happen, but, in my mind, there are logistical issues.

If you are an apartment dweller, what do you do?

Hang on the roof, wait patiently in the street?

If it’s a Saturday night, do you want everyone knowing you are sitting home, eating a pepperoni, extra cheese pizza?

I also envision price increases as well as many delivery people out of a job.

The whole drone thing sounds cheesy to me.

Anyway, here is an opportunity to experience drone pizza delivery:
