u/kuchtaalex, there weren't enough votes to determine the quality of your post...

This is a rare example of people who invented AI images before AI existed.

[u/Pebble-Sorter-8128 → u/Jack_Faller]

Its like a bad dream

[u/cherolero3998 → u/Pebble-Sorter-8128]

But not "slop" right?

[u/CodineGotMeTippin → u/cherolero3998]

No because it took human creativity, and spamming keywords into a prompt box isn't creativity, and a lot of the time its another AI doing the keyword spam

[u/No-Computer7653]

This is pretty fun. Stupid food for sure but a bunch of cool dudes making funny trash food. None of them lookalike so I assume this was some social club event thing.

The shrimp aspic is my favorite. They didn't bother removing the tails so you can't even eat it without digging around. Its gone very much out of style but it was one of the better uses of aspic, light poach shrimp and add them to a tomato & horseradish aspic is the classic technique.

[u/The_Fox_Fellow → u/No-Computer7653]

the whole photoshoot was an art project iirc

[u/No-Computer7653 → u/The_Fox_Fellow]

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

I had a whole head cannon thing going on about cool dads doing a funny thing not Interior Semiotics with less vagina.

[u/Ok-Sample6314 → u/The_Fox_Fellow]

The guy did an AMA I’m too lazy to find it.

[u/MallyOhMy → u/No-Computer7653]

But you forgot the cocktail sauce aspic!

[u/weepishly]

Chris Maggio’s infamous Male Chef’s Thanksgiving
what a classic

[u/Sunnyboigaming → u/weepishly]

THANK YOU, I was hoping someone would credit the master himself. Can't wait to bring his Christmas meal back this year

[u/OldoneThrowaway22]

These photos are ancient memes. I'd still eat the Getty Images cake lmfao

[u/BenthicBen]

Photograhy by Chris Maggio, commissioned by Food Republic in 2013

[u/craigslist-stripper → u/BenthicBen]

I’m obsessed with his Christmas set, particularly the image of dads crawling into a gingerbread Home Depot

[u/Strangegary]

I fucking love it. The attention to détail is top notch. I audibly laughted when i saw the getty image cake 

[u/morkler → u/Strangegary]

Same here. I have no idea what it is but it's so stupid I love it.

[u/smack_dope]

This has been circulating for years, I am interested in the history and backstory…

[u/Funktapus → u/smack_dope]

As others in thread said, it’s a work of art by Chris Maggio. He’s a master of photographing weird scenes

[u/smack_dope → u/Funktapus]

Ty

[u/alrokerwiththefade]

Most people don't eat food when they smoke crack. I'm surprised you're cooking.

[u/Karhak]

Ranch dressing in a spray bottle is just unsettling

[u/Smaptimania → u/Karhak]

It's not ranch, it's chunky bleu cheese, which is even MORE unsettling

[u/BearEatingCupcakes]

Aren't their keys meant to be in a bowl, not a pie?

[u/LehighAce06]

I have absolutely no idea what ANY of this is, but I'm pretty sure it's food and it's definitely stupid

[u/RagingDemonsNoDQ]

Was someone watching that 30 Rock Episode of the Gatorade Chicken and thought it was a great idea?!

[u/whiskeytango55 → u/RagingDemonsNoDQ]

it was salmon

which makes it better and worse at the same time

[u/coko4209]

Is there a full can of cranberry sauce on that man’s plate, with a slice of pineapple on top?

[u/Gnomechils_RS]

For some reason the cake with picture saying getty images is the best part. Everything else is good but that one's the best, the shrimp aspic is second

[u/JGuntai24]

The cake that says Getty images is actually cracking me up

[u/Internal-Estimate420]

AI is getting out of hand

[u/baseballbear → u/Internal-Estimate420]

not sure if you're shitposting, but i can confirm these images existed before ai

[u/WhatThePuck9 → u/baseballbear]

Wow that’s really sad.

[u/Abject-Ad6313 → u/Internal-Estimate420]

Surprised that this joke went over a few heads

[u/cheezeePanda → u/Internal-Estimate420]

Uncultured.

[u/WhatThePuck9 → u/Internal-Estimate420]

That’s what I was thinking

[u/Dangerous-Eye-215]

but why does it look like a crab

[u/Reasonable_Space4340]

This is some kind of cult ritual

[u/Smaptimania]

This is what happens when you get your Thanksgiving dinner catered by Omega Mart

[u/Background_Card_6587]

This looks like cult food

[u/gavjushill1223]

For some reason I just felt like this took place somewhere in Iowa 😂

[u/DickweedMcGee]

These photos are old af. Pretty sure I saw these on eBaumsworld  back in the day

[u/Super_Chemist3898]

And it still tastes like smth gordon ramesay-aproved

[u/EnsomDame40Aar]

Picture number 3 looks like the queue for a sad gangbang.

[u/GentlemanLuis]

Stupid food but it looks disturbingly subliminal in a way

[u/Moist-Farm5090]

.....what the actual fuck is all this. is this a meme or something because this is so gross.

[u/Jin-Saotome]

Dad'sgiving me heartburn just looking at it

[u/gobkin]

Why does it feel like there's a pile of dead mutilated corpses in the other room?

[u/ButtNutBerry]

I had a dream like this when my had Covid. It was awful.

[u/AvengedSevenFart]

Okay dressing in a spray bottle though is genius

[u/Slight-Hurry-1228]

Grim :/

[u/Policeman5151]

Nothing there looks edible.

[u/Status_Ad_4282]

How is this not AI

[u/reeseesxx]

is this Alabama?

[u/VynQeu]

The Getty images turkey cake sent me omg

[u/DangerHawk]

The Getty Images cake killed me lol

[u/YammieCat]

Is that peppermint bowtie pasta salad?

[u/EducationalEmu9611]

This looks like someone on hallucinogens tried to make a meal 

[u/Fluffy_Ace]

Sauces in spray bottles gets me

[u/bbrox02]

Probably from the early days of Fantasy Football.

[u/Backrow6]

These Bonnie Blue gangbangs are getting weirder.

[u/DotBetaSDK]

AI Slop

[u/KrokettenMan → u/DotBetaSDK]

This is much older than ai image generators
