Will YOU Be Able to Avoid Mutant Milk and Meat?
If you choose not to eat cloned meat, or drink cloned milk… as a personal decision… will you be able to tell the difference? Will the government prevent marking these “Franken-Foods” so that we can avoid them? It looks like it!
Cloned Livestock Poised To Receive FDA Clearance
“Get ready for a food fight over milk and meat from cloned animals and their offspring. After more than six years of wrestling with the question of whether meat and milk from them are safe to eat, the Food and Drug Administration is expected to declare as early as next week that they are. The FDA had asked producers of cloned livestock not to sell food products from such animals pending its ruling on their safety. It isn’t clear whether the FDA will lift this voluntary hold. While many consumer groups still oppose it, the FDA declaration that cloned animal products are safe would be a milestone for a small cadre of biotech companies that want to make a business out of producing copies of prize dairy cows and other farm animals — effectively taking the selective breeding practiced on farms for centuries to the cutting edge.”
I see a long and hard fight ahead to preserve our right to have REAL foods!
