McDonald's Happy Meal resists decomposition for six months

Vladimir Lenin, King Tut and the McDonald's Happy Meal: What do they all have in common? A shocking resistance to Mother Nature's cycle of decomposition and biodegradability, apparently.

That's the disturbing point brought home by the latest project of New York City-based artist and photographer Sally Davies, who bought a McDonald's Happy Meal back in April and left it out in her kitchen to see how well it would hold up over time.

The results? "The only change that I can see is that it has become hard as a rock," Davies told the U.K. Daily Mail.

She proceeded to photograph the Happy Meal each week and posted the pictures to Flickr to record the results of her experiment. Now, just over six months later, the Happy Meal has yet to even grow mold. She told the Daily Mail that "the food is plastic to the touch and has an acrylic sheen to it."

vomitvomitvomit

not surprised shake head....and fat people (MCD addicts) wonder why this stuff doesn't break down after they eat it Scratchchin




...maybe those who come back as zombies are those who only have MCD guts/tissue left after sitting the ground for a while and why they are difficult to kill...and they start craving fresh, real meat

Notice how she ordered the burger plain? It would have put a damper on her publicity stunt otherwise.

Europe. And only because there was no other [reasonably priced] food open that day.

Completely different than the crap they serve here, it shouldn't even be called McDonalds over there.


I've only been to McDonald's (any McDonalds) once in the past 8-10 years Dontknow

I didn't notice any significant difference when I lived in Europe (apart from beer availability), but that was in the 90s, so maybe things have changed Dontknow
