FDA declares cloned animals safe for food sales
The FDA says meat and milk from cloned animals are safe but labels need not reveal cloning origins. Major producers like Dean Foods and Smithfield express skepticism about consumer acceptance and economic viability. Cloned animals are costly, used mainly for breeding or prize dairy stock, with breeding offspring sold as conventional meat. A voluntary producer moratorium remains for marketing reasons, likely months, while Viagen Inc. and Trans Ova Genetics note over 600 clones exist for U.S. breeders.
