Yes it has. As a matter of fact, cloned Beef will soon be available at a supermarket near you! And, because the meat is completely identical to non-cloned Beef, the USFDA has decided to not label the Beef as cloned.

Actually the debate was whether cloned food should be entered into our food supply without being labeled.
And yes, our good ol' FDA is allowing it. Way to regulate the industry, huh!

Yea... I heard they said that they take the sample of certain cells in the meat, put it into a culture solution, and ta-dah, new meat is created... But I wouldn't eat it... Anyway it's only available in certain countries, so I don't have to worry too much cos it's going to available in my region...
