Here is another example of food photography gone bad. Hopefully for diners the shrimp has not, but where are the tomatoes and carrots? What is that white stuff in the middle with appendages sticking out of it, fumunda cheese?

Here's the thing about food photography - it is an art form. There are photographers around the world who specialize in food photography. They use special tricks, lighting, and substances to make the food appear appetizing and inviting. It's usually not the way you'll get it on your plate, or out of the bag, but the point is to make you believe you will. An iPhone photo of what the chef just cooked up won't.

Oh, and it is "the veranda."
