In January 2008, the United States Food and Drug Administration concluded "meat and milk from cattle, swine, and goat clones or their offspring are as safe to eat as food we eat from those species now" (U.S. FDA, 2010). However, cloning remains a very controversial topic. A web-based survey administered by Knowledge Networks was used to determine U.S. consumers' awareness of and attitudes toward meat and milk from cloned cattle. Findings reveal consumers do not differentiate much between products from cloned animals and products from non-cloned animals. Overall consumers are concerned that animal cloning is an unnatural process and that it will lead to human cloning.
2008 年 1 月,美国食品和药物管理局得出结论:“克隆牛、猪和山羊及其后代的肉和奶与我们目前食用的来自这些物种的食品一样安全”(美国 FDA,2010 年)。然而,克隆仍然是一个非常有争议的话题。Knowledge Networks 通过网络调查来确定美国消费者对克隆牛的肉和奶的认知和态度。调查结果显示,消费者对克隆动物的产品和非克隆动物的产品之间没有太大区别。总的来说,消费者担心动物克隆是一个不自然的过程,并且它将导致人类克隆。
