DALL-E 2: A 7 patty cheeseburger surrounded by thick cut fries with a glass of soda

I wanted to see how DALL-E 2 handled food requests, I gave it the following query “A 7 patty cheeseburger surrounded by thick cut fries with a glass of soda” and thought it did alright. It even gave me the option of both regular and cheese fries in one image. Some of the glasses look a bit odd, that’s blatantly a can of Coke, and I don’t know what is going on with the bowl of cheese or butter in the one image but not bad. I will say it didn’t take the number “7” into account at all, although it was a very wordy query. I imagine with some refinement of the input you could get a much better image but not bad for my first cheeseburger query!

All of the below images were generated by DALL-E 2 from a text input.

Patty looks real and possibly like ribeye, fries look real, the glass is peculiar, the bun is almost perfect but the eggwash reflecting the light in the top right is ever so slightly off. Hands down this is the most realistic-looking burger of the lot.

Fries look real, that’s blatantly a coke can, the glass isn’t very good, I’m not sure what’s going on with the paper in the top right by the coke can, the bread and patty look fake but the plasticized cheese looks very real compared to cafeteria food as does the visually unappealing lettuce.

This table is beautiful, something weird going on with the chair, the fries look like they’ve accidentally merged with some sort of chicken or fish breading in spots, the bun looks more like a super chonky pancake, and the glass is perfect except for the weird ice anomaly at the back of the roughly 12 o’clock position where it looks like the ice physically goes through the glass, I’m not sure what’s with the slabs of butter or cheese in the mirraging metal dish though, and the burger patty reminds me of McDonald’s ‘steak’ in their old steak, egg, and cheese bagel.

This glass looks good aside from appearing like it’s been photoshopped in from another image. The cheese fries look good but overexposed, the regular fries have all sorts of weird things going on, the bun here looks very blah and the edge of the patty is just odd.

Someone smashed the top of the bun but it looks real, the bottom of the bun is a bit less real, the plasticized cheese looks real and the patty just looks like your generic cafeteria super processed patty. The fries, as with other examples, are just slightly strange looking in places and metal tray they are on looks good except for that “11” bar roughly in the middle. This glass doesn’t appear symmetrical but it’s one of the better ones of the lot, I would 100% hate that ice in real life though.

Bun, cheese, fries, and bowl all look fine. The glass again though has issues with the rim although the rest of it is probably the best of the lot and the ice looks decent especially given how opaque the drink appears to be. The patty though, the patty just looks wrong.

Trying Hansen's Cane Soda Root Beer

Video subtitles:

Hey YouTube, what's going on? Right out of the gate I want to apologize if you hear the heat going, it is very cold outside, we are well below freezing it's pretty much turning on every few minutes, so it's kind of hard to film today. We're going to be doing this Hanson's cane soda naturally flavored, and other natural flavors root beer

This is just like a generic kind of soda it comes in a little I think six-packs maybe four-packs, little cardboard deals, I think it's four-packs, sorry for not knowing this, I bought a lot of sodas recently for this review series on drink reviews.

At Hanson's we're all about crafting remarkable flavor from simple ingredients. real cane sugar, of course, hey we began in California so for us, nothing is too bold or unconventional, always free from artificial flavors, sodium, caffeine. This is what organic tastes like it is a non-GMO project verified.

Made with real cane sugar, caffeine-free, gluten-free, sodium-free. It's 160 calories in one can, zero fat, zero sodium, 41 grams of carbs, which includes 41 grams of added sugars, so again all of your flavor and this like many of the other drink reviews I've been doing all your calories come from pure sugar, not something great but as a treat sure. I would never drink these regularly even if I loved them, uh if I was going to drink one regularly I would probably drink the Olipop which I've done a previous video on one of the flavors probably be another one coming soon if there wasn't already at this point. Don't know what order I'm going to release these videos in but I do have the root beer from Olipop and I have tried it, and it is good, and I'm going to do a video on it if it's not up already. If I was going to regularly drink soda so I'd drink those because they're very low calorie and they have a lot of fiber added and they're expensive so it stays a treat and not a common thing. These, I mean, 41 grams of added sugar. You're basically drinking diabetes in a can, I'm sure it tastes lovely, it may or may not, but you know clearly someone enjoys it because they keep making it and if you drink this stuff in moderation great, but I would never advocate drinking this stuff regularly. I know this is a drink review series but uh just, just, moderation people, moderation, um a lot of people have a lot of liquid calories with this stuff, I'm preaching now you don't care so let's get on with it.

You know, the standard can sound a lot of carbonation coming out let's get some here Mr. Moose.

Definitely has a decent color for a root beer.

Smells more like root beer than, um, another one I tried which you've probably seen the video for at this point.

This definitely smells like IBC. or Dog and Suds, or Barq's root beer. It has a very classic root beer scent which is promising.

Oh yeah, that's good, it's just generic root beer. I'm not sure that's what they were going for but that's it's just generic root beer flavor.

It's, um, it's definitely not stronger than, um, a typical root beer. If anything it's a little more mellow, it doesn't have that like harsh bite that some root beers have. I think in a float this would probably get watered down a lot in flavor by whatever ice cream you're using, if you're using, you know, just vanilla or vanilla bean I think it would really take away from the flavor of this. Obviously, you have to try that yourself but definitely not what I would go for for a float based on the, uh, the drink itself, it's um, you can definitely feel the sugar in it though. I'm getting that fuzzy tongue and the, uh, the tooth film right away.

Yeah, if you have Hanson's anywhere near you definitely worth trying, um, you do have to buy like I said either four or six in a little case but it was, it was pretty cheap. I think I paid two or three dollars for four or six cans so very cost-competitive. Sorry for those of you that don't like the sound, I'm going to slurp the can, it just bothers me when there's that liquid floating around.

Yeah, that was Hansen's cane soda, 160 calories of sugar from presumably sugar cane.

Yeah, sorry, I...I love root beer. I grew up next to a drive-in restaurant called Mug'N'Bun which has been in Indianapolis, it's in the Speedway area, like right on the edge of Speedway, it's been there for probably 75 or 80 years at this point, last I knew it was on its third or fourth owner in that period and they make their own root beer and it is so good and it just takes me into childhood so I love trying root beers and when they get close to that i just get happy because I'm taken back to the mid and early 90s when things were great and I was first discovering the internet and there were a bunch of fun movies that I've now watched hundreds, if not thousands, of times or at least listened to them that many times. Root beer is magical it's, it's so fun, and it's something you can make at home if you really wanted to. I might do that eventually try making some root beer, um, I imagine I would never make anything even as good as this but it could be fun.

Yeah, that was Hansen's root beer. Thanks for stopping by. Like, comment, subscribe, tell me you hate me, say you hate when I do this pitcher thing, remind me that I need to lose some weight because I definitely do, I've got a bit, a bunch of fat rolls there, the sugary soda's probably not helping. I'm not going to finish this, it will go down the drain and I'll save the remaining ones of this as a special treat. Yeah, see you guys next time!

Trying Original New York Seltzer Vanilla Cream Soda

Video subtitles:

Their little logo here with the skyline says "the choice is clear" the choice IS clear, I would not buy this again but it's not the worst thing I've had, it's not the best thing but an interesting experience. Um yeah, I kind of wonder what if their other caps say other things, "slow down on the way to the future" with the dulcet tones of background noise. I don't know if you can hear it but we have the wash going, and I really hope when I'm editing this you don't hear it. Um, eventually I'll try to improve my filming we might go back out to the living room there's a lot more stuff to grab noise we are on laminate or excuse me, not laminate but real hardwood floors, and this room is basically empty right now except for some boxes that you can't see over here like the solo stove box that Ii showed you in a previous video.

Not my favorite, um at this point I'm just rambling trying to get that viewer attention or retention up you know hope you liked my pin, if you can see it's this little wolf kind of reminds me of Hunger Games a little. I, uh, haven't worn this pin in a long time, I was delighted to pull it out. Normally I wear pins on the lapels which you may or may not see because of my beard but, you know, I like this little guy. He deserves a pocket, plus he pulls your collar down because he's so heavy.

Yeah, that was New York seltzer vanilla cream soda, thanks for stopping by. Like, comment, subscribe, tell me you hate me, check the Patreon out if that's your thing, uh yeah, see you guys next time!
