FDA poised to OK food from cloned animals

[texas*princess]

eating cloned animal meat would really freak me out.

i'm not a scientist, but i gather that the clones are just regular animals that have the same genetics as another animal - which could be handy and could help by producing "superior" food products with a lot less time that breeding takes, but just knowing it was a clone would weird me out.

i don't mind that they want to "OK" it, but i personally would like some kind of label that says 'this pork chop is a product of a cloned pig" or something so i could decide whether i wanted to eat a cloned animal or not.

i don't know if any 'testing' has been done, or know of anyone who would want to be the testers, but i think the fda has some kind of responsibility to make sure beyond every shadow of a doubt that eating cloned meat wouldn't cause any adverse effects in people.
