Top o’ the mornin’ to ya! With Saint Patrick’s Day around the corner, it is time for my Irish pride to really shine (my last name is Irish, after all)! Amidst thoughts of four leaf clovers and leprechauns, one of the things that has always amused me about Saint Patrick’s Day is the green food craze. In other words, foods being dyed green in celebration of the holiday. My question is: Do these foods actually look appetizing to anyone? Therefore, I set off on a quest to uncover pictures of the 5 worst looking green foods I could find. Surprisingly, one of them is naturally green…but, in my opinion, does not look any more appealing than the dyed entries. Take a look and see what you think!

 

  

1)      1) Green grits: Having lived in the South last year, I saw my fair share of grits. To me, this breakfast favorite doesn’t look all that tasty on its own, but add some green food coloring into the mix? Yeah, no thanks. I’ll just take some pancakes.

2)e 2) Green applesauce: Unlike grits, applesauce is a food that I normally enjoy. Yet once again, add some green food coloring into the mix and you end up with a green and gunky sauce that will have you feigning fullness instead.

3)      3) Green tea doughnuts: Apparently, I missed the green tea revolution, as it now seems to be used as a key ingredient in a wide variety of food products: green tea mousse cake, green tea pudding, green tea ice cream…I thought the worst was the green tea doughnut, though. Doughnuts are supposed to be a “guilty pleasure,” right? Not in this case.

4)as4) Basiron Pesto: This cheese is naturally bright green. You heard me right. It is touted as being delicious, but I’m not sure I could get past the glaring brightness of its green color to be brave enough to try it.

5)re5) Green Eggs and Ham: Who could forget one of Dr. Suess’ classic inventions? It sounds like a great addition to your St. Patrick’s Day celebration... Unlike the book, though, I am one who will not end up praising Sam-I-Am and shouting “I do so love green eggs and ham!”
