Carrots in excess turn you orange, can other foods colour you too?

If you ate, say, 1lb of spinach a day, everyday, would you start to turn green?

Are there other foods that can change your appearance?

I think it's just the stuff with beta cerotene like carrots and peppers

Thank fuck gin is colourless

Blueberries make your poop dark green 🤷🏻‍♀️

I love this idea. Flamingos are pink because they eat shrimp. Would I turn pink if I ate too many?

Beetroot can turn your wee pink!

So that’s what’s happened to Trump.

Blackberries stain fairly badly?

What about the skin round his eyes? It's all pale!

Not quite the same thing, but pineapple juice and black coffee affect the taste of spunk. Apparently, I should add.

HavelockVetinari - I reckon it's a sign. Mark of the devil, or somesuch. The eyes being the window to the soul, & all that.

I dont know but once my ex caught me crying on the floor because I thought I had bowel cancer. But I'd been on weight watchers and eaten beetroot every day for a week. I was fine.

A couple of (large) sticks of Candy floss makes my wee-wee pink.

I think tomato soup can turn you orange as well, perhaps it has beta carotene also.
