Well, a certain amount of it might be the thought that yellow foods are
either unripe (tomatoes) or going bad (salad greens, green beans), but if
that's what people like, well, let's make them a menu- starting, of course,
with:

Green eggs and Ham
Green meat
Green back-of-the-refrigerator science experiments.
Green bread
Green (unripe) apples
Grasshoppers/locusts
Cap'n Hook's drink for Peter Pan

Anybody else?

 If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably not a
