Not only does it not sound right, it's incorrect. It unambiguously means that Mary is a walking, talking chunk of hair. Not that she has hair, she is hair.Japanese students sometimes say or write something like "Mary is blond hair." I don't think it would sound right. Am I right?

Like if you were to say "Mary is a frog." it would be Mary = a frog.
I've heard that native speakers say something like "I am the orange juice" or "I am the sandwich" etc... in cafes or restaurants. Is that true?
Thanks, johnnyG. I'm glad to hear that what I heard is correct.Then, yes, people will sometimes speak this way. But it's informal, would never be tested on something like TOEIC, and, "I am" would always be "I'm".
Deeper, "I'm the OJ," or I'm the BLT," would be "I'm the one that ordered the OJ," or "I'm the one that ordered the BLT."
Perfectly fine. It would sound more natural if you were to say "Where is the TP?" as opposed to without the word "the" or you can ask "Which aisle has TP?".Thanks, ooTmaster. If I want to buy toilet paper, is it all right to ask the store clerk,"Where is TP"?
