I don't know from the standpoint of eating them. As a farmer, I can't
say they'd make good sense. Nature invented biodiversity for a reason.
I understand the argument is if you have good milk producer, then
clone her and get a whole herd of good milk producers. But if you have
a whole herd of identical cows, then one disease they're not resistant
to can wipe them all out. Isn't shrinking biodiversity one of the
current problems with banana production?
