Sloppy or mismanaged cloning procedures have risks. Think BSE and other health risks related to meat. The public has a right to know whether their food was produced naturally or through cloning. They have a right to make their own choices based on health or ethics. Mixing animal cells isn't everyone's cup of tea.
