So why can't they, and this may be a crazy idea, just use lettuce?
Yeah they do this so it can last longer for display purposes, like this.

Real lettuce would look awful after a few hours and would have to be constantly replaced.

It is all "truth in advertising" like how they display hamburgers, milk and ice cream.

Lol.. that was my thought also. I guess they like there plastic food on display
Who is walking by, seeing plastic/fake food and thinks "I bet the real food looks exactly like that, I'm going in"?

At least the photos of unrealistic expectations would take less daily work.

Yeah I never understood it either but there is something with the Japanese culture as to why it is done.

I think that last kid could be a gif as a metaphor for folks like @jarntt who are Islander fans so far this off season with all the expectations.
Expectations at this point are :rip:
