I'm wondering if anyone can help me? I always bought frozen strawberries from TJ & I wasn't using it for a while but now when I wanted to restock I see they changed the hechsher & I have never seen that one... would anyone know what the KL symbol is?

I don't believe that frozen strawberries (with nothing added) need a hechsher.

However, I hope you are aware that none of these hechsherim are certifying that there are no bugs on the strawberries, unless explicitly stated. It's your own responsibility to check for bugs. (Or only to use for smoothies, if that's how you hold.)

This. I only buy frozen strawberries for smoothies, otherwise I buy fresh and check them then freeze

And I hold any fruit without added ingredients are okay without a hechsher (though I buy target frozen strawberries which have an OU)

Just reiterating that the hechsher was not regarding insects, it was just verifying that there are no non kosher ingredients. If you use frozen strawberries that haven't been checked, as long as there are no other ingredients then it doesn't really make a difference what hechsher there is (or even if there is one at all). If you only use checked strawberries, you need to buy with a hechsher that specifies on the bag that it has been checked for insects.
