It states that a=b, so if b=c, then a=c as well.

In other words:

Apples are food, food is edible. Therefor, apples are edible.

It also means:

Apples are always green, yellow or red, and apples are food. Therefor, food is always green, yellow or red.

But that's not right...

I think it's more like saying "If an apple is a certain color and that certain color is red, then the apple is red".

"the OP failed at being clever"

That's what happens when instead of trying to be clever, you're questioning a mathematical property.

you weren't questioning it

you were just trying to seem clever or witty by thinking of an exception to a property

but then you failed at doing that

I'm sorry that you can't accept that I questioned a mathematical property.

In my experience, mathematical properties take mathematical inputs exclusively. What you put in the original post is more of a philosophical syllogism, I would say.
