| - The phrase "please be grub sauce, please be grub sauce" has been used when rhetorically questioning the presence of blood, the equivalent of a human child saying "please be ketchup, please be ketchup." This has occurred when Karkat encountered the body of Kanaya, even though he actually saw Eridan kill her, and when Terezi encountered a large puddle of the resulting blood by the transportalizer and sampled some of it to make sure. Karkat has also flat-out called a dead Sollux's blood grub sauce at one point. If Karkat and Terezi's earlier respective denial and confusion about Kanaya's death are of any indication, as well as the addressing of Sollux's death, grub sauce would seem to come in a range of at least yellow to green.

| - The phrase "please be grub sauce, please be grub sauce" has been used when rhetorically questioning the presence of blood, the equivalent of a human child saying "please be ketchup, please be ketchup." This has occurred when Karkat encountered the body of Kanaya, even though he actually saw Eridan kill her, and when Terezi encountered a large puddle of the resulting blood by the transportalizer and sampled some of it to make sure. Karkat has also flat-out called a dead Sollux's blood grub sauce at one point. If Karkat and Terezi's earlier respective denial and confusion about Kanaya's death are of any indication, as well as the addressing of Sollux's death, grub sauce would seem to come in a range of at least yellow to green. Given that troll infanthood includes a grub-like stage, the nature of Grub Sauce is dubious. It should be noted, however, that many things on Alternia have larval states, such as Beefgrub livestock and Mother Grubs, including even some of its biologically synthesized technology. It bears to be mentioned that Jane says concerning gushers that she often joked that the snacks were so nasty, it was almost like they were filled with multicolored slime harvested from plump extraterrestrial larva. It may be that grub sauce may contain a slime that some form of grub produce from their body, though the conversation with Karkat and Dave specifically mentions it actually containing grub, not just slime. Earlier talk of the "sweet, tangy mucus" on a grubloaf, may give weight to this theory, assuming all three are made from the same kind of grubs, however, this would cause discrepancy in its purported similarity to mayonnaise, which is nothing at all like Gusher filling. This makes any link between Gushers and Grub Sauce unlikely.
