She just wanted to see what it would look like.

She wondered if it would “decompose.”

  1. When you stick a McFish sandwich up under the seat of your boss’s car in the middle of the summer it turns into putrid maggot bait in less than three days, or so I have heard.

  2. That’s not too surprising. Both the fries and the nuggets were cooked in hot oil and that would have killed just about any kind of bug or microorganism I can think of. Then the hot food simply dried out, and without significant moisture it was not suitable for growing mold from spores. I’d bet that you could take any fried food and store it the same way this happy meal was stored and you’d have similar results.

  3. I think Al is right, I do believe that McD or someone else has addressed this “OMG McDonalds food doesn’t decompose OMG” problem.

    And basically it’s what he said. I’ve heard that explanation before. McD food doesn’t have a ton of chemicals or preservatives in it, apparently.

    Also to note that the movie Supersize me was dubious at best, the guy was drinking mass quantities of soft drinks from McD every day and that did him no favors.

    There was a followup movie where a guy ate nothing but McD for a month but DID NOT eat fries NOR soft drinks and he LOST weight and did not experience any bad results in his blood work.

    McD has a bad rap, primarily I think from supersize me, and their management is stupid and keeps trying to reinvent a massive company and is screwing it up in the process.

  4. So how would you know if the ‘meal’ you just bought wasn’t sitting under the counter for 6 years ?

    The incompetent kid at the register (that can’t make change) handed you an unpurchased bag someone had stashed there.

  5. personally I’m a fan of the nuggets… The “pink slime” nuggets. Yep. If they’re fresh, they’re good.

    Also the double quarter pounder with cheese is nice. Big macs? Yep. Nice.

  6. I’m sorry, call me a skeptic, but I call so much bullshit on this.

    1. Why would anyone do such a thing for the sake of doing it, and NOT document on a weekly or monthly basis?

    2. Why are there grease stains on the bottom part of the receipt that is stapled to the box?

    3. Why is the receipt stapled to the box at all? I have NEVER gotten food intended for CHILDREN that had staples involved.

    4. What was the ambient temperature and humidity in the “office”? No record of that? Oh, OK.

    5. Who, in their right mind, buys a chicken nugget Happy Meal with NO SAUCE?

    To many questions, not enough answers.
