I used to totally collect Fake Food! It was based upon my fascination, as a kid, of the only thing of interest when forced to tour model home after model home in So Cal with the parents: the fake food laid out so invitingly in each dining room and kitchen, sometimes the patio. Not just the loaf of bread on the counter, but the full place settings at the table, the drinks, the veggies.... reminds me of a Shel Silverstein poem: The saddest thing I ever did see Was a woodpecker peckin on a plastic tree He looked at me and "Friend," said he "Things aint as sweet as they used to be."

Was a woodpecker peckin on a plastic tree
He looked at me and "Friend," said he
"Things aint as sweet as they used to be."
