There's Iwasaki Images, (310)328-7121, which is very good, or Nasco,
(920)563-2446. None comes cheap. I've actually filled in some gaps from
local hobby and decorating type stores, being selective because some of
their merchandise is obviously fake, but got an incredibly realistic cabbage
and watermelon, for instance, from just such a store.

Subject: Real/Fake Food
>I know that this subject has been touched on in the past, but I would

>We are planning an exhibit that will include barrels with examples of

>My question is twofold. First off, does anyone know of a good way to

>slabs of meat, crabs, poultry, tobacco, etc?

>Any help would be appreciated!
