Americans have said skillions of times that they don't want genetically altered frankenfoods - let alone those from cloned animals or their progeny.
But does Bush's FDA listen?
Does any agency in the Bush regime listen to anyone other than Big Business?
Now the FDA admits that meat and milk from cloned animals and their offspring are already in Americans' food supply. But they said it's impossible to know whether this is true of a specific item because there's no difference between clonal and nonclonal foods - a fib.
I think it's possible to know, because if someone was around to clone the animals, then there was someone around to keep track of it, right?
The safety of clonal foods has not been sufficiently tested. Other forms of modern genetic engineering have caused ill effects. (Did you know that the frankenfood industry now produces corn that is actually a corn/human hybrid?)
The rise in cloning has also failed to address ethical concerns like animal welfare.
Maybe cloning is why most food tastes the same lately (it tastes like soap or cardboard).
