blue cheese...well, its usually white with blue running through 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(like you said not reall true blue) 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. 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.

Why is there no blue food? I can't find blue food - I can't find the flavor of blue! I mean, green is lime; yellow is lemon; orange is orange; red is cherry; what's blue? There's no blue! Oh, they say, "Blueberries!" Uh-uh; blue on the vine, purple on the plate. There's no blue food! Where is the blue food? We want the blue food! Probably instores immortality! They're keeping it from us! - George Carlin

Biologically organisms including humans are not attracted to the color blue as a food source. For that reason blue fruits and seeds would not have attracted carriers to disperse seeds and continue to grow.

a few mushrooms can get a blue tint to them, but other than that, I cant think of any. I used to put blue food coloring in my pancakes just for fun, and in milk, too
