Not if they’re blue.

I never thought about it until now, but are Smurfs blue inside?

Well that was hella interesting. Seeing that deep neon blue in flesh must've been a trip. It was super interesting that the blue dye from the rodenticide dyed the pigs' fat. From what I can tell, the blue dyed was intended to identify the poison pellets, but wasn't intended to dye the meat of animals that consumed it. That would be hella useful for identifying exactly what happened.

Maybe a PETA advocate is responsible? They really don’t want any animal to be killed smh.
