摘要：It is apparent that more and more cloned food, meat, and milk products will continue to enter the U.S. food supply and most local markets, some with public and consumer knowledge, but most without. While the mind conjures varied images involving cloning, society and science have conflicting views of what is acceptable and what is not acceptable in the corporate power struggle to move science and cloning forward. Consumers may have skewed views derived from science fiction movies about cloned animals and crops, or just have uncomfortable and mixed feelings about food they think should be "naturally made" are now "man-made". From many past and recent studies, the FDA continues to stand behind their findings that the food supply from cloning methods are as safe as food produced and derived from normal methods, and will not require special labeling when being sold in the market place. Society is struggling with the issues of how much is really known about cloning, how much society really wants to know about cloning and what is there to know about cloning if there was full disclosure. In today’s society the corporate world has full control over cloning, the disclosure of what is cloned, how the food supply is cloned and where all the cloned beings exist. Inevitably, final decisions are up to the consumer as to determine if it is time to eat cloned meat and drink cloned milk? (“Time to eat cloned meat and drink cloned milk?", 2007)
