    Yes, some are really bad while others are just being picky in my opinion. Still, the bad ones really should be sued for false advertising.

    At Sonic, its the exact opposite. The food on display actually looks nastier than the actual thing you get!

    And yeah, some of these are really nitpicky. OH THIS SOUP DOESNT HAVE ALL THOSE GREEN CHUNKS IN IT LIKE ON THE BOX THIS IS FALSE ADVERTISING!

    lol

    I don't think they're trying to say that all of this is false advertising. Some products look almost exactly as pictured on the packaging(or would with some lighting correction and a professional camera setup) while others look nothing like it. I guess they wanted to show comparison shots of packaging vs. product, but let the viewer decide what actually is a lie and what isn't.

    Lets face it, if you buy cheap tinned/ packaged food what do you expect?!

    Buy fresh food and you can make it look however you want it to look!

    Good old photoshop helping packaging. Still, most "ready-to-go" meals are terrible anyway.

    Plus, some of those soups look like vomit... or to have worms in it.

    Yeah, and Kinders gone all out "milk" campaign is complete utter bullshit. "lots of milk" in a kinder milche schnitte/milk slice . yeah my arse, you need to eat 25 of those disgusting pieces of "nice tasting cake" to get 25 centilitres of milk. More commonly known as 1/4 litre of milk. Seriously, I could make better cakes with LOTS of milk in comparison to Kinders disgusting sweets. And it doesn´t matter if it is their Kinder ice penguin version, or just the normal snot of a milky slice.
    The only "good" thing Kinder has made was back in the day, with their Kinder Eggs, but thank goodness for my allergy to cocoa.
