Why restaurant meals don't look like the ads

"You think models wake up looking like that every day? They have a lot of people making sure they look as good as they can—same thing with food,"

Except that when you see a model, what's being sold to you is the outfit the model is wearing, not the model itself.

Yes, but arguably. The model gives you a vision of "I could look like that if I wore what they're wearing." It is a weird metaphor for fast food regardless.

> what's being sold to you is the outfit the model is wearing,

The outfits are pinned and pegged and folded and tucked before photographs are taken.
