We prefer to call it Chromatically Challenged

Scott and I got ice cream today at the cafeteria. I had Ultrachocolate1 and Banana. Scott got Mint Chip and Concord Grape.

As I picked up mine, he asked “Did you just take my ice cream?”.

Scott is colorblind.

  1. It wasn’t really Ultrachocolate. I’d call it a good Extrachocolate. I think they called it Ultrachocolate to more clearly disambiguate it from the Vegan Chocolate on the other side of the display case. ↩

    That mint is clearly green, but the banana does not appear very yellow, definitely potential for confusion. I kind of think banana and grape might have been the most winning combination here; could be interesting and good, or interesting and bad. Chocolate and mint would be second, it’s a classic and safe. Then chocolate and banana. Then mint and grape.
