As far as I know cloning hasn't reached the point, where the clone appears at a ready to slaughter size. I would suppose a clone grown from birth to slaughter size on grass, would qualify as grass feed beef. A mass of muscle tissue grown in a petri dish may not. Personally I have fewer objections to cloning food, than I do for genetic engineering. I'm not so sure if I would halt the "tinkering", but do feel it should be slowed to the point where irreversible consequences are minimized as much as passable. I do remain unconvinced this technology is now need to prevent the starvation of my fellow citizens in the world. Doug, N0LKK Kansas USA inc. W
