Neither option is really that great.

So apparently the FDA had come out with the ruling that cloned pigs and cows are safe, although they haven't certified sheep yet.

This begs two questions.

Did the FDA people in charge roll their eyes, use the funds on a giant barbecue, then issue this ruling? Or did they actually spend money testing whether or not animals made of meat magically become made of deadly anti-meat if they're made with the same DNA, the way the FDA was intended to?

Either way, how was this undertaken in such a way that every animal species tested was verified completely safe, while still having enough uncertainty that they need to continue to test each animal species to see if it's safe? Are they colossal incompetents, or do they just want the money for another barbecue?

My guess? Bureaucracy. There's probably some sort of red tape requiring that they "test" each species separately.
