The end of the year is often the time for prophecies of doom and, at the end of 2006, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration helped those prophecies along by releasing a long-awaited report on cloned food. The document, which was itself peer-reviewed, reviewed hundreds of studies and concluded that meat and milk from cloned cattle, pigs and goats "are as safe to eat as food from conventionally bred animals." This echoes an earlier report from the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.
