Why does the color blue mean raspberry-flavored?

There's a simple equation explaining why. Blue = the best color ever Raspberry = the best berry ever Blueberry is one of the most horrific flavors on earth, therefore blue couldn't possibly mean blueberry. In order to work, the best color must be equal to the best flavored berry. The final equation looks something like this: Blue = Raspberry. Companies that make blue raspberry know what's up.
