* A plot point in an episode of ''[[The Fairly Odd Parents]]''. Early in the episode, Timmy's mom tries to make a pink souffle, which collapses and turns grey (due to her poor cooking skills, although I think noise was also involved). Later, when Timmy makes a wish that everyone and everything were the same, the world goes greyscale, and everyone becomes identical blobs. Cosmo and Wanda can't find Timmy until he recreates his trademark pink hat using another of his mother's collapsed souffles, which was supposed to be grey.
