They just chose a bad picture to represent it. There are many versions that are quite colorful because of the edition of vegetables and spices. It's traditional to have peas, carrots, onions, garlic, and celery inside of it. Parsley, sage, terragon, and black pepper are some of the things used to give it flavor. The chicken broth also gives it a lot of flavor if the carcass is left to boil for long enough. It's quite good if done correctly.

Oh I'm aware this was a staple of my southern up bringing. But even my parents version didn't have any color. I'd be lying if I said the initial comment wasn't some kind of bait.

That must be a your parents thing cuz the way it was made for me growing up was pretty colorful.
