So I was walking past a Seven Eleven and I noticed that the doughnuts starring in the (this is the doughnut talking) "I'm just $1" and "1$ doughnut" campaign were, in fact, THE SAME doughnut. To wit, between the chocolate and strawberry doughnut, one of them is an impostor. My money's on the chocolate being the grandaddy-of-all-liars as it'd be easier to darken the strawberry's lighter hue.
Evidence:
Why not photograph two doughnuts for variety? Are they trying to suggest that all Seven Eleven doughnuts have the same uniformly drippy icing?
I meant to blog about this a while ago, which kinda loses the freshness of this post as you won't be able to track down the doughnuts yourself and demand answers (the promotion finished in July). I found these images while cleaning up my computer and thought people needed to know about this insidious example of a BLATANT VISUAL FABRICATION.
Stay alert. The doughnut is a lie.
