      I mean, they often do?

      Take TV advertisements for the food, there’s often a mascot, actors and other props.

      Or look at the menu for a milk shake, you only get a pink or beige or brown liquid, but the menu shows a chocolate bar, fruits or whatever. Nothing you can actually find in the food you then receive.

      In 9 out of 10 cases the menu and ads are highly polished up and don’t look like a photo of the real thing.
