It doesn't come as much of a surprise because whenever we eat fast food we only see the second image... Like, I was not :jaw:as you probably intended.

so never eat at a fast food restaurant because of the appearance of your meal compared to the advertisement? as long as it contains the same ingredients i dont see anything wrong
read the thread title. i never said "never eat fastfood" its just a comparison mate

More annoyed at the fact that burgers are smaller than my palm nowadays. Hungry Jacks double whopper seems to be the only burger that isn't goddam fun sized.

Of course it is going to appear different. The advertisements were prepared specially to make it look enticing and had a professional photographer taking them whereas the real life were simply prepared in the mimimum amount of time so you could get your food faster. Hence the term fast food.

Most of the time, what is photographed isn't even edible. If it isn't made out of plastic, it's full of colouring or barely cooked.
Quite frankly, you wouldn't want to eat image #1.

Is that supposed to look like brains?
I was recently in the US - Arby's (where this "sandwich" comes from) basically prides themselves on the fact that they use roast beef instead of burgers. Sounds okay in theory, but their menu pretty much consists of 3 different "sandwiches", each one with increasingly more cheese and beef. And it didn't taste all that great...

Although they had like 5 different types of sauces and that kind of made me happy.
