Cliff Crooks Rejects Marcel Vigneron's Suspiciously Color-Coordinated Advances

Once again, from Padma Lakshmi's Cogent™ Blog, comes another interesting titbit (it's the British spelling, possums) about the villainous Marcel Vigneron:
"I felt badly for Cliff who is color blind and got the worst color, or at least the hardest color: purple. I do think he made a valiant effort by trying to match the color of eggplant. But Cliff's own instinct was right, often eggplant does just look black, or close to black. Perhaps if he had chosen a red cabbage which has that lovely purple magenta color, he'd have done better. I think it's important to note that Marcel offered to help him choose, yet Cliff's reluctance to trust Marcel kept him from taking that offer."
