Food ads are usually focused on depicting the freshness of its culinary creations, but the VIPS Restaurant & Retail campaign takes a different approach.

Created by the Leo Burnett Iberia advertising agency in Madrid, Spain, the campaign consists of three [print ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/believe-campaign) each with different foods: a plate of sushi, a sandwich and a salad. Illustrating the company's mission to create [handmade foods with care and quality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/merchant-gourmet-yes-chef-campaign), the ads make the dishes look like timeless pieces in a museum in order to emphasize this message.

Some people may take these VIPS Restaurant & Retail ads in the wrong way and just think of the [food as artificial and inedible](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/all-flavour-no-mess), but that's up for you to decide - take a look at the images and see if they make you hungry or lose your appetite.
