Not to mention that the food stylists create something that isn't even edible. They frequently use things that aren't food to make it look more palatable onscreen.

I used to work in product photography. That is not true or legal here in Aus. The only thing they are allowed to use in the picture are ingredients used in store.

I cannot speak to the laws in other markets but that is not the case everywhere.

Of course they will go through hundreds of buns to find the perfect one etc, so it is still incredibly wasteful.

Same thing in Europe. But I think in the US everything is allowed (surprise surprise)

While it doesn't have to be "food", it does have to be edible in the US...

But that aside, burger king used to be good. It used to be decent sized and was almost worth the cost. Now on the other hand, it is so tiny and doesn't feel remotely worth the price.

In my area, they just closed about 5 locations this year, and to be honest, I am only sad about the few people losing their job at these locations.

Burger King has gone so far down hill since 2020.

Everything is edible at least once.

Man that sucks, BK in Toronto is still a nice big burger, and on Whopper Wednesday it's cheap so it's definitely worth it. Shame the US side has gone to shit.
