Cloning foes turn focus to food labeling
From Times Wire Reports
With the Food and Drug Administration having declared that meat and milk from cloned animals and their offspring are safe, opponents of such food are shifting their fight to how the fare is labeled.
Although the FDA said it would not require special labels, legislation already introduced in the Senate could force its hand.
Many consumers are demanding that the agency allow food from conventional animals to be labeled “clone-free” -- a marketing move that could dash industry hopes of getting beyond the clone debate.
