news.yahoo.com— Would you eat meat or drink milk derived from cloned animals? The question is now one that consumers need to consider seriously.

Just a thought... you can never truly clone an animal since they have two sets of each chromosome, and these chromosomes randomly become activated during development. This is why identical twins aren't actually identical, and some are very different looking/acting from each other. So, more importantly, even with a cloned cow like people were talking about before, you could never get exactly the same piece of prime rib. Besides, would you WANT the same piece of steak every time? No way!
You know, that's as good of an argument against husbandry (selecting optimal stock for breeding), which has been going on as long as human civilization, as cloning.
