Fake Food - Back Fake food has a variety of purposes. In fact, several companies specialize in manufacturing and selling fake food. One of the first thoughts that come to mind with the mention of fake food is young children playing. Although children commonly use fake food in play, artificial food may also be used by companies in the food industry. Manufacturers of fake food generally sell their products as decorative props. For example, fast food restaurants regularly design food promos. These promotional pieces generally include a photo of a menu item. We have all experienced ordering a menu item from a restaurant that looks nothing like the picture on the promo. In most cases, the restaurant used fake food in their television and newspaper advertisements. Many food companies need fake food that appears real. However, some companies choose food that is intended to look artificial. This is likely to protect their patrons. These companies may display food in the restaurant to show customers what is included with a particular entrée. Obvious fake food will deter children and adults from thinking that the food is real, and taking a sample. Fake foods also make great gag gifts. Treats such as foaming sugar, hot lollipops, and peppered gum appear harmless. However, after a few minutes of enjoying these treats, a spicy flavor or fishy taste will cause recipients to gag. Fake foods may include candy that turns the teeth black, produces a foul smell, or candy that explodes in the mouth. If you really want to gross out someone, leave fake chewing gum lying around. Fake food is used mainly for decorations, gags, and props. In most cases, fake food does not look artificial. The material used to create realistic fake food is toxic, thus it is essential to keep food out of the reach of children and pets.
