The US Government has decided that meat from cloned animals is safe to eat and does not require special labeling(標記).
The Food and Drug Administration(FDA)planned to speak to industry groups before an announcement was made yesterday. The regulatory agency claimed that it would approve the consumption of meat from cloned livestock(家禽)in a scientific journal article published online earlier this month.
Consumer groups say labels are a must,because surveys have shown people are uncomfortable with the idea of eating meat from cloned livestock.
However,F(xiàn)DA regulators concluded that cloned animals were virtually indistinguishable from traditional livestock and that no special identification labels were needed.
“Labels should only be used if the quality of the meat is greatly changed by how it is produced,”said Barb Glenn of the Biotechnology Industry Organization.
Critics of cloning say the judgment is still out on the safety of food from cloned animals.
“Consumers are going to be buying a product that has potential safety problems and a whole load of ethical(倫理上的)issues tied to it, without any labeling”, said Joseph Mendelson,legal director of the Centre for Food Safety.
Carol Tucker Foreman,director of food policy at the Consumer Federation of America,said,“the FDA is ignoring research that shows cloning results in more deaths and deformed(畸形的)animals than other reproductive technologies. ”
The FDA scientists wrote that by the time clones reached six to eighteen months of age,they were almost the same as traditionally bred animals.
Final approval of cloned animals for food will be months away; the FDA will accept comments from the public after issuing a draft risk assessment(公布風(fēng)險評估草案)yesterday.
Approval of cloned livestock has taken five years because big food companies are nervous that consumers might reject milk and meat from cloned animals.

B. After the government agrees to pass a bill.
C. After food from cloned animals is labeled.
D. After the FDA has assessed comments from the public.
70. Why has it taken 5 years to approve of food from cloned animals?
