New "Anti-Freeze" Food Additive

If you buy Breyer's or Good Humor ice cream, be on the lookout for a new "anti-freeze" ingredient. It's "ice structuring protein" (ISP) and it's genetically engineered (GE) fish protein.

This new frankenfood ingredient has NOT even been tested for safety. The safety info submitted to the FDA was based upon a different sub-class of GE fish protein.
