Cow clones?!


Question: Is it cheaper for companies to clone our meat? Also, is it safe or healthy?
I think eating the same cow over and over is unnatural.

I think eating the same cow over and over is unnatural.

I really can't see how it would be cheap enough to mass produce livestock for human consumption. Doesn't make sense. I don't believe the cloned meat would be any more or less healthy than what we eat now. I'm no scientist so I can't really explain it, but even if it were cloned we're not eating the same cow technically.

It's not safe and it's not healthy.

It certainly isn't cheap right now as research scientists and their equipment and time is very very expensive. Will probably be healthier than what we eat now. As for eating the 'same' cow over and over is not only unnatural it's quite impossible. You will just have a piece of another cloned cow.

No!!!!
Most people didn't look into the whole cloning story. You won't eat a cloned anything They cost upwards of $25000. You will eat the offspring of them. The FDA and others say it should not be a problem but if you are my age you remember comercials for cigarettes with doctors saying this one is the best. As for me I won't try it.

Fifth time this week I have answered a clone question.
It is too expensive to clone animals for meat production. They will be used as breeding stock. As for safe, how could eating genetically identical cclones be any more "unsafe" than eating the original cow?
You already eat cloned apples, and most other tree fruits. All fuji apple trees are cloned from one original tree as are all Bing cherries or Santa Rosa plums.
