Theriogenology

The meat and milk from cloned animals are safe to eat and should be allowed for sale, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. And you'll never know, anyway, because the labeling will be a clone of the labeling used for non-cloned beef. No special labeling is needed, the FDA says in an article published in the Jan. 1 issue of Theriogenology and in the full 678-page study posted on the FDA web site last week. The less we know the better, apparently. Why else would the results of a four-year investigation in cloning safety be announced quietly between Christmas and New Year's?
