If this meat is no different than conventional meat, why don't we just throw is dogs and cats into the food supply and solve the stray problem. They are after all meat also and are considered delicacies in many parts of the world.I am with the original poster, lyneka. I quit.
I just blogged about this and both of your replies represent the exact kind of misconception too many people have.The article isn't saying that cloned cows are identical to dogs and cats (is that really what you got from that?!)It's saying that the offspring of a cloned animal is identical from a chemical standpoint, and that eating one is no different than eating the other.There are other issues with this type of technology, but too many people are ignorant and focused on the wrong ones.see <a class="user" href="http://www.biochemicalsoul.com/blog/2008/09/oh-no-were-eating-offspring-of-clones.htmll">http://www.biochemicalsoul.com/blog/2008/09/oh-no- ...</a>
