blood tastes like?
As to colour, I'd say it's probably green; human skin, at least, is translucent, and the blood gives it the pinkish colour. So green-skinned creatures probably have green blood etc... (*slaps forehead* I'm getting carried away here. I was about to go off into the relative merits of copper- or magnesium-based blood... Hm. Thought to ponder - chlorophyll has almost the exact same structure of haemoglobin, except it has a different atom (is it magnesium? I don't remember) in place of the iron in the centre of the molecule- *slaps self again* And now I'm rambling, someone shoot me! AUGH!!)
