Cheap Plastic Hamburgers.
I have an odd fascination with pictures of really fake-looking food. You know when you walk through Chinatown or Japantown, you'll see the restaurants that have a front display window FULL of plastic renditions of their most-requested meals? Yeah, that's like porn for me. The poster on the wall of the really crappy diner that's been hanging there since 1968? The bright yellow one with the giant pot of beet-colored fondue featured on it? My gaze won't leave it until at LEAST coffee and dessert, even if I happen to be dining with someone else.
Funny thing about this habit of mine is that the food at McDonald's has the same kind of weird effect on me. I'm not the anti-fast-food-snob type at all, but come on - some of the shit they serve up at McD's doesn't even look manmade. Ever pulled apart a Double Cheeseburger (why did I feel the need to capitalize that?), laid out all the pieces on your brown plastic tray in front of you, and just LOOKED at all of it for a few minutes?
These two guys sure as hell have, and I love 'em for it. Goat-o, get out of el house-o!
