Surveys have shown that most Americans do not want food made from cloned animals and food companies have taken notice. An article in the Wall Street Journal reports that 20 companies, including Smithfield Foods, Ben & Jerry’s and “Kraft, the U.S.'s largest food company by revenue,” have pledged that they will not use cloned livestock.

The companies were responding to a survey by the Center for Food Safety, a nonprofit consumer group opposed to animal cloning. CFS surveyed the industry after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ruled that products from cloned cattle, swine, goats and their offspring "are as safe to eat as the food we eat every day."

The Wall Street Journal says, “…products from the offspring of cloned animals are trickling into the food supply. Currently, the best way for consumers to avoid such foods is to eat organic food.”
