    Farrow & Ball go further by just calling their salmon paint colour “Dead Salmon”.

      Colors are such a subjective experience! I would definitely classify salmon as pink, but now that you say it I can see why another person might classify it as orange. It would never have occured to me naturally though.

    D’y’know how many fish are “silvery-blue”, salmon?? Get over yourself, and be glad we didn’t name the color “sockeye pink”.

    Because the meat is pink. Seems simple to understand for anyone who’s been to the seafood counter at a grocery store

      That would be 2 nickels, more nickels than I have used as currency since I last watched “Still Smok’n”. Which is weird.

    Yup. It doesn’t matter if a woman is black or white or whatever, they’re all pink on the inside where it matters. 😏 I’m talking about brains, of course.
