** The VideoGame/LivingBooks adaptation becomes especially suspect to this [[https://youtu.be/t0aOetH59hw?t=7m52s by the end]], with Sam-I'm-Not preparing and feeding Sam-I-Am a giant (blue) roast turkey and eventually leading up to them both walking arm-in-arm into the sunset.

Said adaptation also has a clip that got cut out of the final product but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mV3FkoB8rWA?t=2m11s appeared in a prototype demo]] where Sam-I-Am approaches the nameless guy on the plate of green eggs and ham in an oddly... ''suggestive'' pose.

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: Sam-I-Am is basically harassing the grumpy character, refusing to take a clear "no" for an answer. Regardless of his (presumably) good intentions that is really not behavior that should be demonstrated to children. Really, is it unfair of the guy to be wary of ''green'' eggs and ham?

* HoYay: It's possible to see the book as having a gay subtext. Sam-I-Am is offering something at once familiar and yet with an initially-unappealing aspect to it to Sam-I'm-Not ... like same-sex relations. He is convinced that Sam-I'm-Not really, really, deep down inside ''likes'' it and he knows this. Sam-I'm-Not resists this doggedly, which has to make Sam-I-Am even more convinced that he understands Sam-I'm-Not better than he himself does.
