You've heard of “duck typing”, right? So the opposite is:
Slowworm typing: it looks like a snake, it slithers like a snake, but it isn't a snake.
Sometimes it's Platypus typing: it looks like … something. Which it probably isn't. Guess again. Oh, and don't go near it, that way lies pain.

Who really knows what blue is supposed to taste like anyway? Food should not be that colour.
When I was in college the local convenience stores (Snappy-Mart) had their own equivalent of Icee/Slurpee called "Slush Puppy", which came in an assortment of colors, including blue. The others were fairly obvious (yellow for lemon, red for cherry, etc) but we had to ask to find out what they'd assigned for blue.
Coconut.
My friend thereafter always ordered a blue coconut Slush Puppy every weekend on the way out of town to go hiking..
About fifteen years later I returned for a visit, with my girlfriend of the tim, and of course I had to take her to Snappy Mart for a blue Slush Puppy. The flavor had changed, though. Mine tasted like kerosene, as did the many burps I treated her to for the rest of the afternoon.
