Would you have any problem eating meat from a cloned animal?

Question

If you have had wine, it likely came from cloned grape vines.

I iheard of a guy in Nebraska that has already sold the offspring of cloned cattle into the market.
The FDA has already approved this.
It is possible (for those of you who eat beef in the US) that you have already consumed the meat from the offspring of cloned animals.
I didn't think anything of it, just wondering if anyone else did.

Answer 1

I guess it would depend on the animal. As long as its not deer meat, sure fine by me.

Answer 2

evaluate ailments like chook flu and mad cow, that would want to spread a lot extra right away between animals that are genetically similar. The extra widespread those ailments are, the tougher they are going to be to regulate, and the further in all probability human beings will be contaminated. i'd also be careful of the cloning procedure, because it would want to nevertheless have some unidentified result on the animal, that would want to correctly be danger-free in case you eat extremely, yet risky in case you eat it each day. Or, the technique might want to correctly be danger-free on condition that finished completely, that is far less in all probability if cloning will develop into extra regularly happening. And what occurs after various generations of cloning? Are the animals extra in all probability to improve tumors that pump out great parts of risky factors? i'd favor to attraction to close why that is being considered? Is it more lower priced to generate a clone in a laboratory than to reproduce animals certainly? Is it extremely well worth the opportunity of a vast lack of existence interior the herd?

Answer 3

The Santa Gertrudis bull calf (castrated to make him a steer; actually) is practically a "cloned animal", so to speak, already. As he is 3/8 Brahma and 5/8 Shorthorn. The rib-eye steaks, the T-bone, the sirloin, and of course, the Fillet Mignon, are all delicious cuts from that animal . . . And those marbled are almost "sinful" . . . So, lighten up on "cloning animals for a food source". No one is going to die or get sick or whatever . . . Of course cholesterol is yet another story. Moooooo!!!!

Answer 4

Very interesting question...
At this time, I guess I would eat cloned meat assuming it was considered totally safe to do so. (Safe as regular meat, I mean)
Vegetable cloning (grapes: wine) does not bother me at all.

I think cloning, like nuclear power, is good to know about but not to use.

Answer 5

I would have a problem if the original animal did not taste good to begin with. If the original tates good, keep cloning and killing them because I will keep eating them. Good times!!!

Answer 6

I'd have no problem with it at all.

Exactly like you said, wine is from cloned grapes, all vegetables and fruits are cloned - there are no negative side effects, so there's no reason not to!

So where's my cloned bacon sandwich :)?

Answer 7

I don't have a problem eating meat at all, so I don't see why this would be any different...unless of course it caused some kind of genetic mutation in my future children. Which of course is only okay if they are Spiderbabies.

Answer 8

I don't think I would like that, I like to eat fresh, organic meat from happy animals.

Answer 9

none whatso ever even if you are aware of the fact that the animal was a cloned one ...............may be in future you will only get that kind of fruits, meats and vegitables.......ever thought of this

Answer 10

no, not at all.
but while we're on the subject of cloning..i think we should clone humans and use them for brain and heart transplants.
