I saw the movie The Fly and some girl eat cloned food and she lived, but she said it tasted like nothing so there wouldn't be much point! lol

I'll eat materialized Star Trek food before cloned. Wouldn't mess with my mind as much.

Oh. My. God. A prime example of in-your-face sarcasm sweeping directly over the head of its intended victim.

...says you to a guy with 'Bydand' in his signature, too.

If you eat hot dogs, you should never complain about eating anything.

I don't think there is a problem, as long as everything is tested completley before it's publicly introduced. At least we're not killing species anymore... Now about those dumb polar bears...

I'd eat cloned food, but rather dislike the idea of eating cloned animals or plants.

Since I know next to nothing about this sort of stuff........... can mad cow disease be pretty much eliminated with cloned cattle?

Theoretically, yes.  There is an easier way to do it as well.  Farmers need to stop feeding cows ground up carcasses.

I've been thinking about vegetarianism for quite a while, and from a morality standpoint, now is probably not a bad time to go for it.

EDIT:  If there isn't enough food to go around, people should start thinking about not having 4,5 and 6 kids.  It's selfish and every species has it's population limit.  But that would be the only reason I could think of to clone animals.
Funny, my married sister has decided not to have kids (as have I and my brother, our mom is so sad the genetic line ends here ), and my aunt said it was "very greedy" of her to NOT have any kids.  I can't stop laughing whenever I hear that.

As for cloned food, naw, no objection.  The only objection I have is that eventually all cattle would then be of a select FEW varieties of cows, and if a disease that came along and was lethal to one variety, well, there goes our food source.  It's what happened to our corn a few decades ago.  Don't go against cloning because of the food itself, but because of corporate greed that wants to put all our eggs in one basket, so to speak.

QFE. I probably would avoid cloned food just because it seems more likely to be less naturally raised than non-cloned.

Organic food is the ideal, but of course, that could be cloned as well.
