Introducing the Frankenapple

Designed by British Columbia-based Okanagan Specialty Fruits, the new
"Arctic" apple -- or what critics are calling the "botox apple,"
reports
Gawker -- is said to have "silencing" enzymes, which would prevent it
from looking old, no matter how old it gets. While this may be
arguably
okay for foreheads, we take it most people would rather know when
their
food is past its prime. Just like waxing fruit and piping nitrogen
into
fish to make it look younger, preventing fruit to brown would no
longer
allow us to know when it's gone bad.

I read about the apple also, the article stated that it would be more
than five years before it would be on the market. They only have one
tree.
