According to Kellogg's:

Why is Tony’s™ nose blue?
While Tony’s™ appearance has changed a bit over the years, he has retained his dynamic personality and youthful good looks. His bright blue nose emphasizes his unique personality and adds to his playful and outgoing nature. Tony™ wouldn’t trade his famous nose for any other! It’s as much a part of him as his famous shout, “They’re GR-R-REAT!™”

Same post at the same time. Freakish.

Not sure, but another interesting tidbit I just found about Tony is that the person who did his voice for a long time was named Thurl Ravenscroft. That's an awesome name!

there's always a marketing ploy behind an animated brand character's color and look. I didn't pay enough attention in consumer behavior to explain further

Because we like the things he does?

I notice he doesn't have any gums, or teeth, blue or otherwise.
