45 Infuriating Examples of Misleading Packaging Design

Food images on packaging are meant to look enticing and mouth-watering. We completely understand that most of these pictures are edited and altered to look better than reality. After all, we weren’t born yesterday. However, there are times when the picture looks so different than the actual product that it feels like a crime. 

Someone bought these confetti cake cookies because the packaging looked delicious. Just look at that cookie! It’s colorful and chock full of chocolate chips. What’s not to love? Apparently, there’s a lot not to love because the real cookies were less than appetizing. This shopper was able to forgive the size difference, but they couldn’t get past the color. No one wants to eat a gray cookie.
