I don't get what the big deal is. Perhaps the cloned stuff would be a lesser quality but I don't see how it could be dangerous.

Regular red meat already increases the risk of colon cancer, is cloned meat really any worse?

is the loss of genetic diversity that makes most life forms so robust. Other then that, I cannot see why it would be dangerous food.

...but it is still icky.

Merwyn said "Regular red meat already increases the risk of colon cancer..." Well if that "regular red meat" is corn fed it does. Also it ain't good for the cow as they evolved to eat grass. Or the land that grows the corn as it's more than likely sprayed with chemicals of one sort or another. So when ya consume corn fed red meat that you get in the supermarket remember that it isn't really regular. It's just that we've been fed this stuff so long we think it's regular. As for clones, it's the monoculture, stupid. About 70% of all the antibiotics used in this country go into animals raised to be eaten. The only way they can survive the horrible conditions of industrial production is to be drugged in this way. And this is just while we are dependent on a handful of species. Imagine what it will be like when we are depending on a handful of genetic copies? Scary. That said, I like eating meat. I asked on here a while back about a source for local organic chickens and got squat. I've sourced my beef and pork locally for a few years now and would love to find some local birds. Heck I'd like to try my hand at slaughter too so I can have a real, visceral connection to the cycle of death into life.
