44 Fun Faux Foods
From Hygienic Breakfasts to Fatty Food Fashions:
Meghan Young — Oct 8, 2009 — Lifestyle
I don’t really understand the fixation with faux foods. I mean, if it looks delicious, I want to be able to devour it. But there seems to be a market out there, as this cluster attests to. Featuring food creations that look pretty convincingly edible, there is everything from fishy cushions to inedible toast below. Thank goodness I ate lunch before creating this cluster!
