Blue things I'd eat! ;)
Moonmelon (scientifically knows as asidus).
This fruit grows in some parts of Japan and is known for its vibrant blue colour.
This fruit's party trick is that it can switch flavours after you eat it.
Everything sour will taste sweet, everything salty will taste bitter, and it gives water a strong orange-like taste!
And with a little butter and garlic:
The pistol shrimp is the NOISIEST creature in the ocean.
Colonies of them make a distinct snapping noise that overshadows nearly all other sounds throughout the world's oceans, including the calls of some whales.
They possess an oversized claw which they close shut quickly enough to move water over 60 mph, creating a cavitation bubble in its wake.
This bubble exists for a tiny fraction of a second (between 10 nanoseconds and 300 picoseconds), but it becomes so hot (over 4700°C) that it emits light.

You say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it.

You say you love wind, but when its comes you close your window.
So that's why I'm scared, when you say you love me.
