  11. Cell Culture Manager Sanaz Arenivas lifts a rack containing vials of frozen cells used for cloning cattle and other livestock from a liquid nitrogen vapor tank in a cloning lab at ViaGen in Austin, Texas November 11, 2009. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2008 approved the sale of food from clones and their offspring, stating the products are indistinguishable from that of their non-clone counterparts. The moves have stirred controversy about whether tinkering with nature is safe, or even ethical, prompting major food companies to swear off food products from cloned animals. But consumers are likely already eating meat and drinking milk from the offspring of clones, which are technically not clones, without even knowing it. Picture taken November 11, 2009.
