there are a lot of diseases or pathology states that are described using foods. eg the appearance of a child that has congenital rubella is referred to as "blueberry muffin" baby.
Imagine this conversation in a restaurant:
Hi can I have a cup of tea colored urine?
Oh, sorry we're fresh out. Can I interest u in a cup of coca-colored urine?
That would be fine but can I have that with a blueeberry nevus?
Sure! As long as u don't mind a side order of anchovy paste aspirate?
How about a nutmeg liver as a main course?
Very good. Would u like a strawberry cervix on top of a chocolate cyst for desert?
To top it all off, how about a nice cherry hemangioma?
Tasty! Don't forget my cafe-au-lait spots.

It's really bad when you have to try to recognize the foods from the disease condition.
