Color blindness causes difficulty with the ''connotative'' color tasks associated with selecting or preparing food. Selecting food for ripeness can be difficult; the green–yellow transition of bananas is particularly hard to identify. It can also be difficult to detect bruises, mold, or rot on some foods, to determine when meat is done by color, to distinguish some varietals, such as a [[Braeburn]] vs. a [[Granny Smith]] apple, or to distinguish colors associated with artificial flavors (e.g. jelly beans, sports drinks).
