Animal food products is some pretty scary shit. Trust me…I didn’t become a vegetarian for no reason. I still eat fish that is line caught or trapped crab, netted shrimp but no damn way I’m supporting an industry that does what it does. People choose to remain unconscious to the facts and pretend its ok. If you knew the facts you wouldn’t.
So based on that and that there still is so much commercial meat consumption I don’t think people would care enough if it was cloned or not.
I wouldn’t eat something I didn’t ethically hunt or kill. I don’t hunt everyday so it just became easier to be doing without meat. Mirco farms are becoming very popular across the US. Small farms that cater to select and conscious customers who have the money to spend.

Hi Dianna
You are correct in the fact the human beings are very mean in their treatment of animals and other people for that matter.
I must say that with the human population growing past the capacity of the earth to feed us naturally with out mass food production we'd be in big trouble if we didn't do some of the things we are doing. I don't like the proceedures of these food producers either for the record and think the treatment of the animals is low down and dispicable at best!!!
That said, My genetic code didn't climb it's way to the top of the food chain to eat veggies!!!! I tried the vegitarian route a long time ago and I didn't feel great like I had heard I was supposed too, I felt weaker, I lost muscle mass and I didn't feel satisfied after eating a meal. (EVER)
By your thinking only rich people can afford the micro ranchers prices and eat beef that was given a rub down, had it's toes polished everyday and maybe even had Voodooman eat it's pussy twice a week for it's whole life. The rest of us would not be able to eat meat and would have to eat veggies because it would be to expensive. "Soylent Green baby!!!"
And as for hunting if we all went hunting this weekend, most of the wild things in the woods would cease to excist, there are too many of us to feed that way.
If it weren't for the mass production of beef, chickens etc... We'd all be eating LONG PIG for dinner. Pass the A-1.
