WHY!!!-1

HI, I am going to answer some questions to which most people will not know the answer. So you will gain some knowledge.

WHY 
do meals look tastier in commercials (than in real life)?
Meals look tastier in commercials (than in real life) because they're not real meals. Each dish, dessert and drink have been carefully prepared and arranged by a 'food stylist', a special photographer who uses all sorts of sneaky tricks to make dishes look scrumptious for commercials, cookbooks and menus. The stylist stuffs baked chicken with napkins to plump it up and paints the burger with burnt matches to simulate grill marks in a chicken burger. Milk is substituted with kindergarten glue so cereals don't look soggy in the mixture of cereals and milk. Dish soap is dabbled on the surface of drinks to give that fresh-poured look.

WHYdo you say 'crying crocodile tears'?
Friends (or foes) who express phony sadness to gain sympathy are said to shed "crocodile tears". The expression is an old one, based on the myth that alligators and crocodiles cry when they devour their victims. Crocodilians do indeed cry when they eat, but scientists are stumped by the cause. Some researchers suspect that the hissing noises crocodiles make while eating unclogs their sinuses and turns on the waterworks. Saltwater crocodiles, meanwhile cry to purge excess salt.

That's all for today and I hope you have gained some extra knowledge today. I am going to continue answering some more questions like this in my next blog... THANK YOU!!!
