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?

Safe is food?

@ 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...

YES - There's nothing better than cloned meat!
