Conundrums: part 2

Short of things to ponder? Here are a couple more.

1) If you add white to blue, you get light blue.
If you add white to green, you get light green.
That works for most colours, but...
If you add white to red, you get pink.

Why isn't pink called light red? Why don't the other light colours have their own names?

2) Once the human race had discovered toast and jam, why did we bother looking for any other foodstuffs? The only way was down.
