every shred of meat is pictured. the rest of the bun is empty and its propped up and angled as such to make it appear ‘full’.
arbys does the same thing. you have to literally pile all the meat on one edge of the bun and take the picture at a certain angle to hide the emptiness behind it.
The image of a food staging crew and photographer also having an independent auditor signing off that yes that is 2.2oz of meat popped into my head. Auditor is dragged into court with scale calibration reports all over a sandwich. No matter what it is deceitful advertising.
there is a whole video on how they do it, by McDonald’s I think. they buy a burger at a local restaurant, take it to a studio and rearrange the fuck out of it and pile it up for a photo op. I can imagine it’s pretty accurate, but there is still a little Photoshop going on and probably more that is off camera. hard to trust any companies nowadays.
There’s no way companies should be able to abuse these technicalities. Don’t you have teleological interpretations of laws - meaning laws being interpreted by considering the intent behind them?

I worked at Arby’s in the 90s, we did not have to fake the meat back then.
Does that make it legal in your country?

In the US? Unfortunately, yea probably. These judges will look for literally any reason to give corporations a free pass or a leg-up.
