but it’s so yummy!

Soylent Green is…. PEOPLE?!?!?!!?
Shame this exact same graph was posted on May 28, 2008.
And wouldn’t you know it… Soylent green is still people! (And Charlton Heston is still overacting wildly – and I love it!)
Take you comments off Charlton Heston, you damned dirty ape!
naah, it wasn’t the exact same graph, it said “other” instead of “green dye #3″ -.-
Sadly, ‘other’ is also made of people. Green dye #3, on the other hand, is made of unicorns.
What is Soylent Green?!?! American thing im guessing?
A wonderful movie starring the late Edward G. Robinson and the equally late Charlton Heston. I’ve linked my name.
Thanks! Youre a rockstar
It’s made of people! American people!
And the dye is made of American Unicorns!
I wonder if there really is such a thing as Green Dye #3? A quick Google search doesn’t turn up such a thing, just a chart that starts at #5.
Some foods I’ve looked at that are green say “Blue dye X and Yellow dye Y”
For the people who don’t know the movie, just think of Soylent Green as the end product of A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift, which if I remember would make its main ingredient Irish children.
Actually, Soylent Green is based on “Make Room! Make Room!”, a novel written by Harry Harrison, the author of the Stainless Steel Rat series.
Stainless Steel Rat! Loved those books!
and “Modest Proposal” was a very good example on why you don’t use sarcasm in writing.
He wrote it because he thought they could read tone, but since you can’t they thought he was a cop out and tried to tar and feather him.
Whoops.
@Fluffy
aren’t unicorns Scottish?
Most unicorn are Scottish, which makes this dye even more horrible. They use the endangered American unicorn, killing them by the dozens, and quickly wiping them off the earth.
The Scottish unicorn isn’t used because the green produced with them is more of a lime green.
Which explains why unicorn haggis looks so strange.
yeah, i saw the same thing. green = blue no. 5 + yellow no. 5.
FOOD CHEMISTRY FAIL.
In the USA, the following seven artificial colorings are permitted in food (the most common in bold) as of 2007:
FD&C Blue No. 1 – Brilliant Blue FCF, E133 (Blue shade)
FD&C Blue No. 2 – Indigotine, E132 (Dark Blue shade)
FD&C Green No. 3 – Fast Green FCF, E143 (Bluish green shade)
FD&C Red No. 40 – Allura Red AC, E129 (Red shade)
FD&C Red No. 3 – Erythrosine, E127 (Pink shade) [4]
FD&C Yellow No. 5 – Tartrazine, E102 (Yellow shade)
FD&C Yellow No. 6 – Sunset Yellow FCF, E110 (Orange shade)
Ability to research FAIL
This graph is full on win (or people?).
DAMN YOU APES! DAMN YOU TO HELL! SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!
I just find that mixing a hodgepodge of Heston’s most famous lines makes them even better.
You forgot “YOU CAN HAVE MY GUN WHEN YOU PRY IT FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS!!”
SOYLENT GREEN IS MADE OF ARTIFICIAL COLOURING!
Also, people.

Just like potato chips! Can’t have just one! :d But seriously. People are better as filets…. good with garlic!
I love that movie!
