From what I noticed, they only started using food references since the MV R.ed F.lavor, which is about drugs, hallucination, and mind control. The following analysis comes from a regular
Kpop forum, but they do have a point:
I am proposing that RV went to a party, were drugged, kidnapped, beaten and possibly murdered.
So basically, I decided to look into RV's new comeback after I saw people curious about the teasers and the music video being different.
The name of the concert is the Red Room and that is where my theory had started.
- Red Room, the name of the concert seemed familiar to me. I immediately thought of the urban legend of the "Red Room". If you aren't aware, the urban legend basically is that the Red Room is associated with the deep web. It is a live stream of the torture and murder of someone for the entertainment of others.
- Now, I decided to check the lyrics and re-watch the music video. Starting with the M/V. We see that there is some sort of news thing happening at certain points in the video (it also states who are which fruits but I have no idea where that fits in). We also see that the girls are at some sort of party at (1:31) in the video, we also see that some people are drinking. We also see down at the bottom of the screen the text "Do you know Lime? Lime and I are really good friends!". Who is Lime? What I am proposing to you is that RV's drinks were drugged by Lime. We can see that at (2:00) a normal human turns into a fruit. Is this the drugs in place?
- Now, let's say Lime did drug them. We later see in the video (2:42) , now that all the fruits are collected, they are taken away. This could symbolize the members being gathered up and taken away. Kidnapped.
- Now that they are in the "Red Room" the live stream has started, as we see at (2:46) that someone is holding a microphone. This could be the sound for the live stream. At (3:21) we see the members look up to the sky. What's up in the sky though? Are they dead and looking up to the heavens?
- Next, I checked the translated English lyrics. Found here (https://www.kpopviral.com/lyrics/red-velvet-red-flavor-lyrics-english-romanized-translation.html). After I read the lyrics I thought that someone who liked the members had kidnapped them and the lyrics are a back and forward conversation between them. I encourage you to read for yourself.
""My ears are ringing and my nose is numb
This feeling is more than what I imagined Up and bang RED""
Okay, so let's break these lyrics down, I did some intense Googling to find that a head injury could cause ears to ring. This "RED" that RV is referring to could be the blood from the injury. When it is said that the feeling is more than they imagined it is because they went to a party expecting to have fun, but ended up drugged, kidnapped and beaten.
""With your colors
Dye me, darker and more strikingly""
This part of the lyrics is referring to the blood and bruising, the colors of purple, blue and red.
""What I like the most is you in the summer""
Here's what I found from the book
"The Illuminati Formula Used to Create an Undetectable Total Mind Controlled Slave" by Cisco Wheeler and Fritz Springmeier. This particular part is about The Wizard of Oz programming (there was a reference to this in C.ooki.e J.ar MV):

I believe the food represents the 'programs' that should be 'consumed' by the victims of mind control, they always appear tempting and mouthwatering for that particular purpose. Consuming the 'programs' will lead them to hallucinations (e.g. talking to fruits, jumping from one place to another, acting like a child, etc).

Surprisingly, the latest MV 'P.ower U.p' is about drugs as well. This is not a full analysis so I might miss a thing or two. I'll continue this post with a full analysis if I find anything new.
Let's meet the fruits of this MV first.

A pineapple stabbed with a lab device. This is a lewd reference, possibly a sexual abuse that takes part during a trauma-based mind control program. It also marks the beginning of everything—dissociation, hallucination, etc.

A kiwi shaped like a CD, or a vinyl. CDs/vinyls reference also appear in JH's Sh.inin MV as well earlier this year. Not sure what it signifies yet, but music and mind control work well together. It can also represent the shape of an eye.
So what do these fruits have in common? Other than they appear longer than other fruits in this MV.
They're both drugs snacks, or ecstasy (MDMA) snacks in particular. People eat these fruits (oftentimes with strawberries) to enhance their trip experience. Reference:
Snacks that intensify marijuana, mushrooms, MDMA and LSD.

We've got a hidden main character here. A banana. It works as the catchphrase of the song. Also a powerful drugs snack.
Ba-banana ba-ba-banana-nana
Ba-banana ba-ba-banana-nana
Ba-banana ba-ba-banana-nana
Ba-banana ba-ba-banana-nana
The pineapple slice is portrayed as a CD.

Then it changes its form in less than a second. 100% hallucination caused by drugs.

A part of vinyl turns into a watermelon slice.
A blue grapefruit/lemonade out of a CD holder. Notice the unnatural color, the only fruit with unnatural color here. They have the song "B.lue L.emonade" in this album as well.

Grapes turn into what appear to be candies.
This is too magical. Hence why the album is titled S.ummer M.agic lol. Ectasy trips are often said to be a magical experience.
These are not ordinary candies,
and these are not ordinary plants (notice the candies hanging).

With all these colorful smileys and stuffs popping out (every member got different colors),

I couldn't help but think of these.
Yup, those are ecstasy pills. I believe they're trying to glamorize, or normalize the use of drugs.
From Ecstasy: The MDMA Story by Eisner
It doesn't help that they have this song
Mr. E in the tracklist.
'Mr. E' in this song is also a reference to 'Mystery', based on the lyrics, now I'm wondering if 'E' stands for 'Ecstasy' as well? It's just my speculation though.
I'll probably continue this post.
