How many times have you sat in front of a TV, saw a fast food commercial, and hopped into your car to pick up that tasty burger only to discover it falls flat on the satisfaction scale? Were your expectations too high? Nope, you've just been another sheep led astray by the evil shepard known as "False Advertising."

Dario D. released a series of images taken he took showing what you see on TV and the best case scenario of what you can possibly get from fast food restaurants. The visual comparison definitely showcases a the interesting contrast in actual products vs. the amount of time gone into prettying up and doctoring advertising materials.
