        It actually has an Instagram handle barely visible on the top poster and it works. I think this is real.

          The metal plate has gibberish engraving. I don’t see why this would need faking because there was a recent boycott campaign against Loblaws grocery stores in Canada but I guess its just laziness. or camera’s built in AI upscaling

            It’s not gibberish. Just shit job on the engraving. The info on the right matches the label on the left.

            Top is company, the long mostly gibberish looking one is the serial or id number.
