Just a thought here.

People are suggesting various colored vegetables and other colored things as
dye stuffs for foods.  Hey guys.  Remember that the pH (acidity/alkalinity) of
the substance to be colored will do weird things with many colors.  If you
want an example, notice what ha[ppens to perfectly good blueberry juice
(nicely blue) when you add tap water (probably alkaline) to it (GREEN!).  Test
on a small amount before trying a big batch.  And bake before deciding whether
this is going to 'work' or not!

Bear -- any comments from you on this???
