The girl was call violet i dont think that was the colour she turned, i think the answer is blue
Next, Violet Beureguarde eats a three-course dinner that is made into a stick of gum. First course, she got tomato soup, hot, creamy and delicious, second course, roast beef. But disaster strikes when she reaches the third course, blueberry pie. She turns blue and swells like a blueberry.:beer:0 -

She did turn blue but its not an option on the comp page so violet is what they are looking for I think

Yes, thanks for that, would be good to get confirmation, although we don't have much time. It might just be a kind of 'play on words' regarding her actual name? Because she looks a violet colour in this video

In the film the Dad says something like "Violet you're turning violet Violet." I've tried Google but can't find it but have watched the film enough times that the quote has stuck in my head :rotfl:
Edit: I found it, it's a little way down the page HERE said by Sam Beauregarde*** Thank you to everyone that posts ***0 -
Sam Beauregarde: Violet! You're turning violet, Violet! Just as I thought...a play on the girls name.
Good luck everyone
