A British farmer has purportedly admitted using milk from the offspring of a cloned cow in his daily production without labeling it as such.
Research in Britain shows strong consumer disagreement to food products from cloned animals.
The UK Food Standards Agency believes that the European rules on so-called novel foods ensure that no food from clones' offspring can be officially sold without a scientific assessment as to whether it is safe.
The RSPCA is calling for an EU-wide ban on the sale of food sourced back to clones on the grounds that cloning can cause superfluous pain and suffering to animals.
