When researching into fast food advertisement, i found this image interesting, and wanted to explore more. I recently came across the article Fast-Food Ads vs. Reality on the AOL Finance & Money site and thought I would share since it provides great examples of fast food advertisement. I find it amusing that even though we know fast-food companies are sucking us in with these “false” ads of inedible food, most of us are willing to consume the “real” version without a second thought. No one ever says, “Hey, this is not what the picture looks like. I want a refund.” We eat the fast food anyway, and forget about it, until we see that mouth watering commercial again.
Whilst temptation is appealing, we should not be drawn to glossy advertisements. Resisting temptation unfortunately is the main reason, due to the hectic lifestyle we all live in today's society. But we are aware, convenience sometimes controls are diet.
