Is there such a thing as a "blue raspberry"?

  • The phrase "supply of fresh blue raspberries from Oregon" seems to suggest that there is such a thing as a blue raspberry, but see Talk:Rubus leucodermis. Should references to "blue raspberries" be replaced with a better name? Melchoir 06:14, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Blue raspberry, today mainly an artificial flavour, originally was obtained from British Columbia wild grown West Coast raspberries(Rubus leucodermis)in the US known as Whitebark raspberry ssp. bernadinus. I think that this should not be forgotten. The original common name "blue raspberry" is still alive with our Canadian Indians and the US Navajos(they also use "frambuesa azul" which means blue raspberry).--Canadianpit 23:27, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
  • http://www.blueraspberrymedia.com/ - That appears to be the source for the quote in question. I've removed it, as that's hardly reputable, and to my knowledge there's no such thing as a "blue raspberry". If I'm wrong, feel free to add it back, with a proper reference. pbones 22:57, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Copyvio?

Spurious citation

The first citation is spurious -- the website is a seed company that happens to use both "blue" and "raspberry" in the same page, with some sort of logical leap on the part of a Wikipedia editor suggesting that the common flavor is based on this plant. In any case raspberries/blackberries are rather difficult to identify and most of them look highly similar. I doubt the flavor is meant to recall any particular species. --♦♦♦Vlmastra♦♦♦ (talk) 00:34, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Use to differentiate between the red of strawberry flavor?

Are there any viable sources that explain how the usage of the blue dye was originally to differentiate between raspberry and strawberry flavorings? I've always assumed this was the case 81.99.27.237 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 16:13, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Sorry, I have been unable to find any sources describing the history of this color. I wonder also. Please post if you ever find something. Blue Rasberry (talk) 18:09, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to 2 external links on Blue raspberry flavor. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).
