Food photography vs. what your fast food looked like

Fast Foods: Ads vs Reality at Frostfire Zoo. Few drivethroughs are spared. Lacking buns in which to hide, Taco Bell Nachos Bell Grande and KFC Famous Bowl suffer most by comparison to their pro photos.
By law, the photograph has to be of the same food that's sold (no shaving cream for whipped cream, for instance), but your corner Micky D's doesn't have a food stylist.
Fascinating stuff:
An Insider’s Look At Food Photography by commercial photographer Dennis Davis.
Food Photography Case Study: Strawberry Cheesecake at photographer Michael Ray's Food Photography Blog. Walk through a shoot, with test shots.
