Is a food tag really necessary in a food forum?

My coco pops are animal paw print shaped for some reason but all it does is make them look like animal trout and it's really conflicting trying to eat them.

For a while there was this green ketchup that was the exact color of goose trout. It made everything taste wrong even though it was just normal ketchup with food coloring.

If your eyes see something that should not be eaten, even if it is just an illusion, then your brain will go ewwwww and think it tastes nasty.

To be fair, the green ketchup had dye in it, so the taste was off. You know what was even more disgusting? Purple ketchup.

I didn't even realise that it just turned into a Quina. Understandable, then.

I am not a fan of those coloured corn chips. That's just wrong. Corn is not red, green, or purple. Stop it.

[Formalhaut]

Why would you want to eat like, purple corn crisps?

That is an aberration.

no u


but yeah that's the kind of corn they make the other-colored corn chips out of if they're any good. it's usually not just dye afaik.

I love blue corn chips.

From my understanding, corn more naturally shows up like that. Making it all uniform and one standard color is a controlled thing. Or at least the controlled growth of one certain variety.

Pretty sure multicolored corn is more common in nature, but I might be off base.

All ketchup is gross though, regardless of color

Blue corn chips are great. They are made with blue corn!

I Hopi I get to try some of that!

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn mooooooonnnn?

While I don't doubt the naturality of other colored corn chips and quite agree with it being more common outside of the uniform controlled mumbo jumbo whatever,
I think that in restaurants that actually -serve- these multicolored chips, they're colored with dye. The red in natural corn is much darker than what these chips look like.

Red Lobster & LongHorn both serve multi-colored tortilla chips with their spinach dips and you can totally tell that they're not natural colored.

Here's an example of organic natural red chips:

THIS is not natural:

(btw, RL's spinach/artichoke/lobster dip is nasty. Never eat it.)

I'm a-maize-d at how bad that joke was, Huxley.
