  Hey! That's interesting...Why, if they are "for show only", are they
  seasoned with the things that are used for salads meant to be eaten?

So they look like food...

You must have seen the many loaves of bread in restaurants, carved and
baked into fantastic shapes, that are not for consumption... so that the
next person can see them....  Or, how cruise ships take some of their
chocolate sculptures for the midnight buffets, and keep them in the freezer
for re-use each week?

Surely, if cared for well, those carved carrots could be reused for several
days in a row, of maybe longer.  Maybe he meant just what he said: make it
look like food, but don't eat it: because you could use it for the next
batch of guests, tomorrow.
