>>102996I'd eat anime sweets but not IRL sweets apparently. Seeing 2D sweets makes me think "looks pretty good for a dessert! Probably not that harmful to eat once in a while! It's all just bread, butter, sugar I'd have to worry for!" Seeing IRL sweets make me think "what kind of toxins did they use to cut the corners in making this?" Once in a blue moon (a year or so) I try it to confirm whether I'm missing out, and even the taste is rather bland and vapid compared to I know what's possible even from simpler homemade desserts. Simple homemade desserts are no fun, complex ones are too much of a hassle unless you use factory toxins to cut corners, bought sweets are either mass production factory poison or you're gambling with the high price to pray the cook didn't mess it up for some taste target audience you're not even a part of.
