Title: FDA Says Cloned Animals Safe Is Food
Post by: Foxy Brown on January 18, 2008, 11:13:33 PM
Just over a decade after scientists cloned the first animal, the last major barrier to selling meat and milk from clones has fallen: The U.S. government declared this food safe Tuesday. Now, will people buy it? (http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5j8xJl-JxF9wAo8gMgdPBXS-fyiIwD8U6JMJ00)

Safe is food?

The FDA's report acknowledges that, "Currently, it is not possible to draw any conclusions regarding the longevity of livestock clones or possible long-term health consequences" for the animal.
maybe 20 yrs later I'll eat meat from a cloned animal .... but now ... HELL NO !!



"Safe Is Food" ?!

:lol: @ headline.

Voted yes. I'd eat it if it was there, but I would never say "I want food from a cloned animal"

There's something a bit wrong I think in creating an animal that probably should have never been, just to eat it...

If the U.S. government wants to say cloned animals are safe as food, then have government officials eat it for a year first before the general public gets it. 
:yep:

I've never agreed to anything so much before, make them eat it first since they think its safe
