A FISH that lives in the North Atlantic is being used to make ice-cream that could be eaten without fear of putting on weight.
Using GM technology, the blood of the ocean pout, an eel-like fish, has been used to make a protein that would cut the fat and calories in some leading brands of ice-cream.
Unilever, which owns Wall's, Magnum, Carte D'Or and Ben & Jerry's, has practical to the Food Standards Agency for permission to use the protein in a range of ice-creams and frozen fruit-ices. It might be 2008, however, before lovers of ice-cream could devour the food without strut on the pounds.
