Fake Food

Who would of known plastic can make your mouth water?

Restaurant display case (1)

If you've ever visited a Japanese restaurant either in Japan or in Australia there is a large possibility that you've seen plates and bowls of food in glass displays near the entrance of these premises and just wanted to eat them all up. FYI they're plastic. Too real right?

They even have plastic displays of simple sandwiches (2)

These fake food displays are usually made of plastic and should depict exactly how food would look like when served to you. I've heard in some cases, if you receive food that doesn't look exactly like the display, it is taken back and you are given a new plate/bowl of food that looks exactly the same, but of course real.
As restaurants' dishes vary in size and image, plastic food displays are in most cases custom made for each restaurant. Its so crazy how they can make it look so real. Apparently some manufacturers cook the plastic pieces in the actual sauces and such to make it look even more real. More and more asian countries are now also using this technique to lure customers into their restaurants which has thus caused the increase popularity in the plastic-food making craft.
Its crazy how real these displays look. But remember they're fake. hahaha :)
