Jeannie Martin makes food out of fabric. It’s not as realistic as the fake hard plastic or resin foods, but her food has more of a two-stage surprise. Let’s say you thought a roll was real, and when you picked it up it was a fake made out of plastic. You’d be surprised once: "Oh, I thought it was real but it’s not real. It’s fake."
But with her fake food, when you picked it up you’d get this: "Oh, I thought it was real but it’s not real… and it’s made out of fabric!"
So you get two surprises instead of one.
The moral of the story is: It’s not enough to fool (with food) – it’s better to delight.
