GM food examples (2)- Strawberries with flounder genes

Scientist are currently experimenting it with genes of sea flounder and artic char. They want to see if it can help strawberies to have anti-freeze properties, so that strawberry can be resistant to cold temperatures during growing or transporting.
                                   
so next time, when you feel fishy about the unbelievable juicy strawberry that you just bit on.. the fishy feeling may not be unfounded...      
                                                 
and the genes are also implanted to other vegetables like potatoes and tomatoes too :PP
