Food is now scarce so there's a great need to find alternative food source.
Soylent Green is by far the most successful product.
Early failed experiments were called "soylent blue and soylent red". 
As a result of eating these chips the people experienced terrible side effects ultimately mutating into horrible creatures. Eventually becoming dangerous to the public.
These mutations were not tolerated by the government and police are instructed to hunt and kill anyone with these side effects.
