False Advertising

    The picture on the right is what Mcdonalds normally displays on their ad campaigns.It shows a nice enlarged version of a sandwich with the appearance of fresh cheese, pickles, and sauce. On the other hand, the left picture shows a much smaller, less attractive sandwich that barely resembles what is usually advertised. In reality, we receive the sandwich that is shown on the left side. 

   As consumers, we tend to buy things that appeal to the eye, meaning if something looks good or at least attractive we are more likely to purchase it. Mcdonalds definitely tries to manipulate their customers by falsely advertising their products in order to attract more people. I'm pretty sure that if they advertised what their food really looks like, then there would be a lot less people eating at Mcdonalds. Advertisements are a really good way to convince people to buy things. As consumers we really have to question whether certain products are really as nice as they are shown.
