Taste The Rainbow...

Reminds me of something George Carlin said once. Why is there no BLUE FOOD?

Seriously. Why isn't there? Blueberries are purple, forget them. Blue jello? The color is artificial, AFAIK. So why is there no naturally occurring blue food?
 
Hey, what with genetic engineering and all, it might happen someday.

I expect it'll be a lot sooner than someday and won't require genetics, just some minor advances in tattooing.

For that matter, maybe it could even be accomplished now, for all I know.

A vast majority of blueberries are actually blue. I encountered them frequently working in the produce department.
 
I immediately thought Skittles... :shrug:

As you should have.

I was looking an someones avatar with the Orion woman with green skin and red hair and eating some Skittles at the time...plus I was drinking. :lol:

Does anyone know about the guy who drinks a little "quicksilver" if I recall correctly and over the years he turned blue???

I saw on Oprah a few years back he got a complete check up by Dr Oz and was healthy.
 
Those are also purple.

And in any case, remember I was talking about *naturally* occurring food. You don't see chips growing in the wild. ;)
