Fast Food: Ads vs. Reality
by Shannon at 10:32 am EDT, Jun 1, 2007

Each item was purchased, taken home, and photographed immediately. Nothing
was tampered with, run over by a car, or anything of the sort. It is an accurate
representation in every case. Shiny, neon-orange, liquefied pump-cheese, and all.


This goes well with My arby's Post.

LOL - some of that looks pretty bad.
But now I want a fish filet and I am not even hungry. (I try not to eat fast food, but I crave those things...I do.)

Food photography is a very amazing art. If you take a camera into your kitchen and just photograph your good looking food you quickly realize that it is very hard to capture food's goodness.

I got lucky and took a photography class by the guy that does Kraft's photography, and he was telling me how they used a needle to turn all the macaroni just the right way for the pictures. He said sometimes he'd have to wait hours for them to get the macaroni right before he could get to work. I have never looked at Kraft Mac & Cheese boxes the same way since.

So...while there's no doubt the pictures look better than what you get in almost every case, that's a lot about the very well paid talented photographers they use.
