A bit too Much-A: food products at museum shops

I always think that the idea of selling food products at museum shops just does not work.  Visitors do not think, or associate food products with museums.

 (-- note: I am not talking about museum restaurants but museum shops.)

Would you want to eat any chocolate wrapped with images of Egyptian Pharaohs or Chinese terracotta army, if not for fun?

I just saw moon cakes being sold at the gift shop of the Mucha Exhibition.

Moon cakes with Mucha design. A bit too Much-A.
