Sure! Why not? Read the label on your breakfast cereal and look what you're eating now!
Yep.
So long as what's cloned ain't human.
You would be shocked :eek: :eek: at some of the stuff I've eaten either because I wanted to or was forced to.
Nope. I have started purchasing only free range meat. The animals are treated and fed better, and I think it honestly affects the way they taste. Ever try prosciutto? If its authentic you will be able to taste the pine nuts that the pigs were fed. Most crap we get around our area is some processed pathetic attempt. Anyway, my point is that when the animals are treated more humanely and fed more quality feed, the quality shows on the dinner table.
Adding to that, I don't eat a lot of meat, anyway!
I agree with Ron White.
Cow flatulence (methane gas) being the menace that it is in contributing to the greenhouse effect, I am doing my part to relieve the problem.
I'm being very patriotic by eating those darn fartin' cows.
:biggrin: :biggrin:
Oh no you didn't! Ewww
Chewin' them babies up as fast as I can.
Bring on that prime rib and them steaks.
Line up the bbq.
Just a good Amurrican doin' his duty for his country.
:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
i'm a vegetarian. not into meat much.... but... i was thinking about the whole cloned hamburger thing... and look at the hormones they shoot the cows up with to bulk up the meat and produce more milk....
I agree, but I wonder if we're not buying our vegetables fresh, if that isn't the same issue.

Exactly! I started only buying organic or soy milk because of something I saw in a documentary called "The Corporation" where these cows had been poorly taken care of and overly shot up with hormones, and as a result their udders became infected and while these same cows were being milked, puss was dripping out of the cows' udders and into the milk! :sick2: Ewwww....Organic milk, veggies, and the occasional free range bird is all I care to eat.
And exactly how do you know that what is advertised as "Organic" actually is?
Seems I've heard lots of Department of Agriculture folk explain over and over about how they don't have enough agents to enforce all the laws on the books.
Unless you grow it or milk it, you can't be sure that anything is as advertised.
Sorry. Don't trust Madison Avenue to tell me the truth about the products they are hired to sell.
Actually that is a very good point. Luckily its easier for me because my cousin is very involved with a lot of organizations that would provide her with the knowledge of what is real and what is not. She's been instrumental in our decision to eat more healthy. One of my best friends, too. They both have done considerable research on the subject.

What is the difference in "prosciutto" and plain ol' "cured country ham". Only difference I see is about 10.00 a lb.

Free Range only refers to the method of "feeding" and caring. Means nothing concerning the genetics of the animal what so ever. . . A cloned cow can also be free range meat. . .
And yes; I'll eat it.
And another flatulent ozone killer is vanquished!
His vorpal blade went snicker-snak.

True...BUT if they are going to clone the animal in a lab, don't you think they will continue to raise the animal in a lab? I don't consider that very free range.
That meat is surly from the pits of hell....and those who eat iit will burn for an eternity............
Jest kiddin..............figured I would do my best Pat Robertson and try to live up to those darned ole Christian expectations.... ;D ;D ;D
I would have no problem eating any meat that is safe, with all of the crap that is injected into many cattle, pigs and chickens these days, it makes you kind of leary.......I usually try to keep stocked up with beef from a friend who raises his own cattle.....
