Looks can be deceiving. Someone who dresses down may actually be an incognito millionaire. A sweet, soft-spoken person may actually have a darker side to them. A box of what appears to be uncooked noodles may actually be a pack of rubber bands.
For today, we are featuring some “food” photos that will immediately kill your appetite once you look closer. Whether it’s a rock that resembles a piece of wagyu beef or coasters that look like tempting chocolate chip cookies, many of these images may very well fool you.

Since we’re on the topic of forbidden foods, let’s explore actual edible items that are not widely accepted for different reasons. Durian, a popular native fruit in various parts of Asia, has also gained notoriety for its off-putting smell.
Its odor is so offensive that it is banned on public transportation to prevent passenger discomfort. However, many like it for its supposedly sweet taste and consider it the “king of all fruits.”

Unlike Durian, chewing gum does not carry a pungent smell. Therefore, it should not be a banned food item, right? Well, not if you’re living in or visiting Singapore. In 1992, the government imposed a ban on all substances containing the “gum base of vegetable or synthetic origin.”
These restrictions primarily stem from Singapore’s stringent guidelines on public cleanliness. So, unless you have a prescription for it, you may be fined up to S$2,000 ($1,500 USD) for selling and up to S$10,000 ($7,700 USD) for importing. You may also face up to one year in jail. Singapore isn’t playing around.

When the Fat-Free craze hit the US in the 90s, many brands used Olestra to make low-fat potato chips. And while this is a common ingredient in America, it is a banned substance in Europe and Canada.
The reason? Olestra’s inhibition of fat absorption has been linked to health concerns, including nutrient depletion and gastrointestinal issues.

If you’re traveling to Venice, Italy, it may help to be aware of the ban on fast food restaurants. According to former city tourism chief, Paola Mar, the goal of banning these food outlets, including kebab shops, was to “preserve and develop Venice’s cultural heritage.”
The law, passed in 2017, limits the number of shops that sell pizza by the slice. Artisanal ice cream shops, however, were spared, thanks to Mayor Luigi Brugnaro.

Scottish people would not shy away from expressing their love for Haggis, one of their traditional dishes made from sheep organs like heart, liver, and lungs. However, the US Department of Agriculture banned the dish in 1971 due to the presence of lungs.
According to the Code of Federal Regulations, livestock lungs are prohibited from consumption due to the possible presence of chemical and biological contaminants.
