We all know serving sizes are a lie. Here's another one. You're browsing the hair dye aisle because you have more grey than actual colour these days and it takes you awhile before you finally make a hopefully rightful choice. End result is NEVER what is indicated on the box.

What are some other lies we are told?

How good a maccas burger looks on tv and how big it is but in reality they're super small.

Also the perfect basket of french fries.

Nope, didn't get that either.

Any fries are perfect fries (okay except the soggy kind)
