Of course! That's how the companies make money. I once bought a cheesebuger from McDonalds and it was plump and juicy with cheese oozing out. Instead it was flat with one piece of unmelted cheese. It looked pretty bad too.

yeah.
for advertisements, they have food artists (?) who specfically are paid to make the food look good.
like the meat isnt cooked all the way, to make it juicier-looking, and they use toothpicks to hold the food together, so it stands up straight.
i saw this in a movie at school.... O_O

I think the calories in the two pictures are exactly the same. One was just made more "professional" and the ones we eat at the stores are made by random workers tongue2.gif .

Well, that's the beauty of food decorating and food art. Professional food artists are hired to make the food look as perfect as possible. I think it's a pretty cool profession, being able to trick people's eyes and make them think something is something that it's not.

Usually advertisements for food isn't even actually food.
It's usually like...Just made of products to emulate that of something appetizing.
Like ice cream on boxes is usually Crisco lol.

it's true what everyone has said, sometimes they don't even use real food or just put a bunch of crap in or on it to make them look nice. my friend's older sister used to work at mcdonald's and told us that during this time when the mcd's here were selling these delicious looking chocolate fudge cakes with chocolate sauce -- in the ads they actually pumped the thing up with water to make it look bigger and yummier. dry.gif
