The FDA has completed its review of food from animal clones, and FDA regulators say that the agency will likely approve the sale of cloned foods this year.

The FDA's action flies in the face of widespread scientific concern about the risks of food from clones, and ignores the animal cruelty and troubling ethical concerns that the cloning process brings.

What's worse, the FDA indicates that it will not require labeling on cloned food, so consumers will have no way to avoid these experimental foods.

The FDA needs to hear from all Americans who don't want food from animal clones -- and a public comment period is open until April 2, 2007.

The Center for Food Safety, a non-profit advocacy group focused on food safety and sustainability issues, has called on the FDA to ban the use of clones in food production until the food safety and animal cruelty problems in cloning have been resolved, and until public discussions have addressed the troubling ethical issues that cloning brings. They are also calling on the FDA and Congress, in the result that these pre-conditions can be met, to require labeling of food from animal clones.
