I googled it.

Blue food is a rare occurrence in nature. There are no leafy blue vegetables (blue lettuce?), no blue meats (blueburger, well-done please), and aside from blueberries and a few blue-purple potatoes from remote spots on the globe, blue just doesn't exist in any significant quantity as a natural food color. Consequently, we don't have an automatic appetite response to blue. Furthermore, our primal nature avoids food that are poisonous. A million years ago, when our earliest ancestors were foraging for food, blue, purple and black were "color warning signs" of potentially lethal food.
Interesting fact, red psychologically induces hunger. That's why so many restaurants use red in advertising.

I'm not sure that it would unless somehow it was ground up and even then it would still be glass.

I had to google it though,

Glass doesnt decompose. It takes thousands of years to become a solid, but glass now will be glass in millions of years. Some types of glass can be made to decompose by adding chemicals similar to what etching does to glass. The term devitrication refers to the decompositition of glass but this is under forced chemical changes and not something thats going to happen in a natural state. Glass darkens as it ages. Lava glass or obsidian is glass found in nature and can be dated back to the beginning of the Earth, and it's still glass.

Glass never decomposes. It is made from molten sand.
Glass is Sparta.
