Orange is colour and fruit. Any other words (other languages) where a colour is also used for another object?

eg: Greens = colour and 'veges'.. .as in eat your greens...

In Vietnamese:...Hong = Pink and Rose...

Update:

I've found more:....

Blue = colour and sadness...and a fight... I got into a "blue" with a drunkard

Aubergine = colour (purple) and an eggplant...he..he...
