I think it's too early to tell whether the FDA will ever require labeling. This issue clearly is a new one and initial article says the decision on labeling is "pending". So I'd wait and hear the decision before getting my panties all in a bunch over something that hasn't even happened yet. Even if the FDA decides against labeling, the industry can also be self regulating in that sense by choosing to label items as "clone-free". It wouldn't be the same thing, but if your reaction is any barometer of what the general U.S. population will have, I imagine most companies will be clamoring to be "clone-free". Just my opinion though.
