McDonald’s reveals why items on the menu never look like what you are served

[sinful]

If you have ever ever queued for a McDonald’s burger drooling over the photos on the menu, you’ve probably wondered why your Big Mac never looks the same.

Well, the fast-food giant has taken a candid approach by revealing the secrets of how it makes its burgers look so much juicier, bigger and tastier in its adverts.

In a surprising move, McDonald’s has made public the laborious process called ‘food-styling’ in which its burgers are prepared for hours and put together with absolute precision so they look their best for photo shoots.

In a video posted on YouTube, the delicate process is shown as the ingredients are stacked, with the ketchup and mustard added using a syringe.

I think i've come to an age where i feel a little regretful after I eat a meal at McDonald's. Do we eat fast food because it fills us up, or simply cos its easy to find.

I remember reading somewhere that people go for fast food not primarily for great tasting food but because we can expect the familiar taste everywhere we go.
