Its becoming relatively rare to do lethality tests with animals nowadays. For drugs approved in the U.S., human trials are needed. Since human trials follow the old adage of "start at a low dose and go from there", raising humans for research probably wouldn't provide a whole lot of information.

We are more like geese than cows and pigs in that regard. A lot of yellow subcutaneous fat and very little marbling in the muscle mass.
That is very interesting. (not to sound creepy )
Maybe he was just badly fed though.
I've seen some nasty, smelly pig tongues but also quality meat. Also meat where it's all white.
Yellow fat sounds nasty though

ive never tasted human meat before so I cant say. It could be super delicious and thats why they're so forbidden to eat. Maybe once you taste them you'll never eat anything else. i guess they smell like hot dogs

I understand the question but what does that have to do with my response to op? The only thing that makes us treat humans different than animals is that it's harder not to empathize with humans so saying that performing research on human clones is immoral is a form of bias. Humans and animals have the ability to feel pain.

Yes, I'm an alien asking about raising humans in labs for research purposes. It's funny. Ha ha. What's your opinion though?
Well... What color of people are we talkin' about?

Why or why not?
No. I think we should raise severely retarded human adults in order to practice modern day medicine on them. It's only right, I mean, they arn't rational creatures, so they have no moral rights correct?
No, they have less intelligence then the general population that's why they are retards.

I think the OP is already doing this and just wants to know what humans think about this
Dudes obviously not human if he has to ask a question like this

Like the great Henry Ford once said, 'you can have any color you like as long as it's black'
Except they might have to be white because that can't be considered racist.
