It is easy to make a delicious-looking vegetable burger at home. But would this burger still look delicious after it sat on your kitchen table under very bright lights for six or seven hours? If someone took a picture or made a video of this burger after the seventh hour, would anyone want to eat it? More importantly, do you think you could get millions of people to pay money for this burger? These are the questions that fast food companies worry about when they produce commercials or print ads for their products. Video and photo shoots often last many hours. The lights that the photographers use can be extremely hot. These conditions can cause the food to look quite unappealing to potential consumers. Because of this, the menu items that you see in fast food commercials are probably not actually edible. Let’s use the vegetable burger as an example. The first step towards building the perfect commercial burger is the bun. The food stylist—a person employed by the company to make sure the products look perfect—sorts through hundreds of buns until he or she finds one with no wrinkles. Next, the stylist carefully rearranges the sesame seeds on the bun using glue and tweezers for maximum visual appeal. The bun is then sprayed with a waterproofing solution so that it will not get soggy from contact with other ingredients, the lights, or the humidity in the room. Next, the food stylist shapes a vegetable patty into a perfect circle. Only the outside of the patty gets cooked—the inside is left raw so that the vegetables remain moist. The food stylist then paints the outside of the vegetable patty with a mixture of oil, molasses, and brown food coloring. Grill marks are painted on. Finally, the food stylist searches through dozens of tomatoes and heads of lettuce to find the best-looking produce. One leaf of the freshest lettuce and one center slice of the reddest tomato are selected and then sprayed with glycerin to keep them looking fresh. So, the next time you see a delectable hamburger in a fast food commercial, remember: you’re actually looking at glue, paint, raw vegetables, and glycerin!
