Oh this is just disgusting, welcome to the future.
So in case you didn't hear, the FDA tentatively approved the use of cloning to produce food.
"Which came first, the steer or the steak?
Case in point: Elvis. He's a 19-month-old Angus calf. You can view him on the Web site of ViaGen, a cloning company. In a recent slide presentation from the Biotechnology Industry Organization, the caption below his photo reads, "Elvis was cloned from a side of Prime Yield Grade 1 beef."
What can I even say? This is disgusting. One more reason to become a vegetarian, even though our produce isn't really much better in this respect...wtf?
