but how do I benefit?

From treehugger, a blurb about the recent okay by the FDA to sell cloned meat mentions some of the drawbacks, including a low success rate and defects that bring to mind the gruesome scene in the last Alien movie when Ripley stumbles upon the lab containing all the botched attempts at making her.

I'm not even particularly against cloning per se (as opposed to most genetically engineered crops); I just don't see how it's going to be that much better for me than a cow grown the old-fashioned way. Is this a solution in search of a problem? Like genetically modified crops and the Iraq war, the rush to market and corporate desire for secrecy (or at least obliviousness) should be flags enough to merit caution if not outright rejection.
