After news circulated that the meat from two children of a cloned cow has entered the food chain, Britain is being questioned regarding its food standards regulations. It is quite possible that there might be over 100 offsprings of the cow in the UK.

On Wednesday, the food safety regulator, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) was reported to be saying that it is struggling to find all of the descendants.

The two bulls in question were amongst the eight cattle, which were made pregnant with the help of embryos taken from a cloned cow in the United States. Its meat was consumed by innocent people.

Watchdogs are earning a lot of criticism for having let the descendant of a cloned cow come in market for sale. But on the other hand, specialists are claiming that having meat of a cloned cow’s offspring is not hazardous to human beings.

In recent times, Britain has witnessed several problems in farming, which have had a bad affect on its agricultural industry.

One of Scotland's national newspapers, The Herald said, "The lesson of the mishandling of BSE in beef cattle and salmonella in egg production is that a scare story can flare quickly to the point where public confidence is undermined and the farming industry is affected, damaging foreign trade".
