NEGATIVE PROMPT
plastic-looking food, impossible ingredient stacking, greasy grey tones, cluttered table, melted cutlery, uncooked appearance, midday harsh light, flat grey sky, artificial hdr glow, orange oversaturation, blown out sun, lens dirt, watermark, text, deformed hands, unnatural skin tone, heavy vignette
