It is AI. The sesame seeds are in the same spot in every photo.

Doesn't look like AI to me?

Food photos in ads often use inedible ingredients that look good on camera, and they composite real product images too, so it might not be AI-generated from start to finish. But even the group shot that says “Duke of the North” looks barely retouched, and leaving the sesame seeds looking that appetite-killing makes the whole thing look incredibly cheap. Even if you're using AI, you still need to put some effort in. Do companies not have designers anymore? Even if they outsource it, surely they have a designer who can supervise the work and request revisions. I seriously don't understand how that got approved.
