I work at that big mac place and neither of those looks like the big macs we make. They must have gotten a big mac from a place where they don't care. Or maybe they squished the one on the right down a bit for effect.
I can't say about the angus burger. It has been some time since we did those, and I don't recall how they looked.

Sometimes reality can PLEASANTLY surprise you.
Ed who? Yeah, I'd never heard of him either. When I found this CD I didn't hope for much. But it was less than a dollar and I buy christian music albums in bulk and sort them out later at home, so I bought it with the rest of the CDs I found at McKay's and brought them all home to listen to.
A little bit later I found myself asking Google for an album list, and was very disappointed to find out he only made two albums.

advertisements are nearly always deceptive. How many car ads show new cars driving serenely among roads with NO OTHER cars in sight on gorgeous scenic roads when reality you stuck in traffic and theres heaps of road cones everywhere and nobody even cares if your car is new or not as long as it goes. lol

My son, some years ago, was determined to buy a cheap radio controlled helicopter. The pictures on the box were so convincing to him.
He saved his money. I warned him this wasn't going to be what it is showing.
He bought it anyway. He was able to fly it twice. The first time only lasted 3-5 minutes.
He charged the battery and flew it again. Went out of range and got into trees and broke.
He was so disgusted. But learned a valuable lesson.

On the brighter side of expectation versus reality: McDonald's sells cheese danish now.
I didn't let my hopes get very high. Every time McDonald's does something they do a really cheap, low quality version of it. But the cheese danish is actually pretty good.
Don't bother with the blueberry muffins, apple fritters or cinnamon rolls though. They are all the cheap junk I would expect from McDonald's.

I probably wouldnt give my children any pocket money just twice a year - new year and birthday thats it. lol
if they expect me to be a bank I'll just say go to dad. But you'll need to work for it.
Im amazed that some parents can employ their children so young. Dad must be making a heap to pay children
