increasing melanin.

[pikapika!]

I am currently very pale and try to get as much sun exposure as i can without getting burnt but i never seem to get dark most probably due to my genes as i have blonde hair and blue eyes.

Is there anything I can eat which will increase melanin production?

Nope. Be careful about the sun exposure too...you don't have to get burnt to be putting yourself at increased risk of skin cancer.

You would half to find a food which contains a melanocyte-stimulating hormone. Which if I am recalling correctly, may effect, or throw off balance your neuropeptides that could have a effect on everything from memory to weight gain. I know of no natural food source for MSH.
