Glowing Sushi

Yes, it's happened.  Fish exist that have been genetically modified to carry a fluorescent protein.  They were made in labs for experimental purposes, but then somehow have shown up in pet stores and now in your dinner. 

I'm not sure how I feel about this and I fully understand the technology behind them!  I should research more... but, I thought it was an interesting find.
